Tree Collection at California Historic Nursery Park

This park, which is now a public open space, is located at the site of the once impressive California Nursery Company.  The nursery played a significant role the evolution of nurseries in California.  They were known for growing trees and grew specimens that were exhibited at both the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco and the 1939-1940 Golden Gate Park International Exposition on Treasure Island.  The site is still home to nine of the city of Fremont's landmark trees.  Some of their specimen trees grown in boxes also still remain.
