WHAT MAKES A PLANT FLORIDA FRIENDLY?
The plants that we choose for our gardens should have the ability to adapt to the attributes of the site.
A site analysis is about what the site has to offer the plants you want to put in your landscape. Right Plant Right Place.
The way we manage our landscapes, our gardens is what determines whether or not the plants are Florida Friendly.
The goal is to protect our water resources.

2018 GARDEN MEDIA GARDEN TRENDS REPORT
Mental wellness will be the #1 health issue! Science tells us that being in nature surrounded by
trees, plants, water, flora and fauna is key to our mental wellness.
Gardening , strolling, sitting in gardens, natural areas, parks will be a prescription for health.
This is great news for gardeners!
GARDEN TRENDS REPORT Resilience
Gardens that are resilient, weather-hardy and can stand up to extreme weather conditions.
Plant CommunitiesThe trend in landscapes is to see plants as networks, see how they’re interrelated instead of as individuals. With a strong focus on management not maintenance.
Imperfect GardeningIncreased appreciation of the imperfections in plant forms focus on the simple beauty found in all plants even weeds.
