his has already been an exciting year for Miramar Wholesale Nurseries. Miramar Wholesale Nurseries joined forces with Vista Hill Nursery. Integrating Miramar’s convenient location and 150-acre inventory with Vista Hill’s unique selection of trees is a strategic move that will enhance Miramar’s existing inventory of shrubs, seasonal color, and the nursery’s popular specialty lines, including daylilies, phormium, ivy geranium, and an extensive line of one-gallon perennials. The addition of Vista Hill’s stock will round out Miramar's already extensive inventory, adding an important dimension to their product line. All plant materials have been moved from Vista Hill’s north county yard to Miramar's nursery operations.

Miramar’s transition is being facilitated by the addition of Bob Everett, former owner of Vista Hill Nursery, to Miramar’s staff.

Everett has joined Miramar’s team, where he will play an integral part in future development of the tree lines. “We intend to build on Vista Hill’s concept of producing distinctive flowering trees,” says Tom Ewing, president of Miramar Wholesale Nurseries. “Although trees have been a part of our product line for many years, we feel Vista Hill’s unique inventory will add an important distinction to our production.” An additional bonus to the transaction was Vista Hill employee, Ron Forkner, who Miramar proudly added to its sales team.

Although Vista Hill’s inventory has been moved to Miramar’s nursery operations, the Vista Hill name will continue to be associated with unique varieties of flowering trees and palms. Miramar Wholesale Nurseries intends to perpetuate Vista Hill's plant materials and will integrate the most unique trees into their existing inventory as a new product line called the Vista Hill Collection. “When Tom informed us that they intended to continue to use the Vista Hill Nursery name in promoting our flowering trees and palms, Bob and I knew we had selected the right team to continue the vision we had set for the company,” says Ralph Evans, general partner, Vista Hill Nursery.
