Family Owned & Proudly Grown in California
Otto & Sons Nursery was established in 1975 by Otto and Jeanne Klittich and their four sons; Bob, Bill, Scott, and Karl. Prior to starting the nursery, Otto landscaped in the Southern California area as "Landscape by Otto" for 22 years. From a 2 ½ acre property in Chatsworth, the nursery was relocated and has expanded to 38 acres in Fillmore. The nursery is currently owned and managed by Scott & Cindy Klittich. Scott joined the business in January 1985 after receiving a degree in Ornamental Horticulture from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. Since then he has helped the nursery grow and continue its goal of raising high-quality plants for Californians to enjoy.
We supply independent retail garden centers and landscapers throughout the region with quality plant material. With over 43 years in the business, we strive to offer the best selection and the highest quality plant material all ready to make your yard the best it has ever been.
