M.J. Fitzgerald Southeast Nursery Stock

M.J. Fitzgerald Nursery, located in Morganton, North Carolina, grows a wide variety of quality nursery stock that works well in virtually all of our markets. Unlike some other shade tree growers, they choose to stick with a consistent product mix with small fluctuations in quantities rather than trying to hit the peaks of demand. Currently, Fitzgerald offers strictly field grown, balled and burlapped material. In the coming year you can expect to see their beginning to offer pot-in-pot container grown trees to suit your tree needs all year long.

Fitzgerald offers a broad variety of material from Acer to Zelkova in shade trees, Cupressocyparis to Tsuga in evergreens, Amelanchier to Pyrus in flowering trees, and Buxus to Viburnum in shrubs and everything in between. Here’s a brief list of some of the items Fitzgerald offers:
