Successful planting
Correct planting depth, root-zone drainage and irrigation coverage matter more than simply adding fertilizer to the planting hole. Earth People evaluates the root flare, surrounding soil and future root zone and uses organic inputs only where appropriate.
Establishment & organic care
Maintain even root-zone moisture without chronic saturation, mulch the surrounding soil while keeping material away from the trunk, adjust irrigation as roots expand and inspect regularly for stress and pest pressure. Our ongoing programs can include organic nutrition, soil-health building, preventative organic IPM, foliar and soil drenches and pruning guidance.
Availability & sourcing
Inventory changes frequently. If the size you want is unavailable online, request it anyway—Earth People can often source additional trees through our Southern California nursery network.
Professional planting available: delivery, placement, irrigation preparation, planting and establishment care throughout our South Orange County service area.

Important: Citrus Delivery & HLB Information
Delivery schedule: To keep deliveries efficient and cost-effective, we coordinate citrus deliveries approximately twice monthly, targeting the first and last Friday of each month. Dates are estimates, not guaranteed appointments. Your delivery date is confirmed after nursery stock and routing are verified; orders placed near a route cutoff may move to a subsequent date.
Availability & regulations: Trees are subject to supplier availability and applicable California citrus movement and quarantine requirements. We inspect trees before delivery, but inspection cannot guarantee absence of latent disease or future exposure. Huanglongbing (HLB), also known as citrus greening, is a serious bacterial disease affecting California citrus.
Citrus warranty: Due to disease and growing risks, Earth People LandCare does not offer a voluntary post-delivery citrus tree health or survival warranty. This does not exclude rights or remedies required by applicable law, including any rights relating to the condition of the tree at delivery.
Professional planting and establishment care may be arranged separately. Contact us before ordering if you need a specific delivery date.
How ordering works
Use our website to request your preferred variety and container size. Submitting a request does not complete a purchase or guarantee availability. We verify stock and plant health, then confirm your selection, pricing and estimated delivery window. No payment is accepted until stock and plant health have been verified. If your selection is unavailable or does not meet our health standards, we discuss suitable alternatives with you before proceeding.
Delivery and professional planting are quoted separately unless expressly included. Explore professional planting or request a variety or specimen.
