Now Hiring. Call extension 1102.
We are a full-service native plant and Florida Friendly Landscape care provider. Our practices are in harmony with nature and the environment while meeting our clients' needs and expectations. In the process, we want to show homeowners how they can have a beautiful sustainable low-maintenance garden that they would love.
Our passion for gardening began as children.
Kirsten has a horticulture degree and is certified as a Landscape Designer. Her specialization is in the creation of natural habitats using native plants. She can turn clients’ visions into functional and living gardens. Her knowledge and personality has landed her on various native plant boards.
Although Victor’s background is in marketing, he has a love of engineering and building things. Like everyone on the team, he is passionate about sustainability, social responsibility, and the environment. If he is not playing in his garden, you will find him out there in nature.
Monique's background is in office management and digital marketing. She is our Office Manager and oversees Client Services. Outside of work, if she is not tending to her indoor plants, she is also working on her orchid and cactus gardens.
A Florida State University graduate with a bachelor's in environmental science and a strong interest in urban planning and eco-development, Nick is our Field Coordinator and go-to guy for installations and maintenance.
Rayna is our Jr. Gardener and Hand Crafter. She loves nature and everything that makes up wildlife. A known tree-hugger, her interests include reading, family, and healthy eating! Rayna’s long-term goal is to own her own business!
We care, our philosophy is - to make a difference we need to change the way we look at our planet we need to learn how to use plants that grow where we live instead of trying to grow exotics that can become invasive or do not provide any benefit. Florida has a unique plant population that can grow in the sand – with virtually no need for herbicide, chemicals, or pesticides, and very little water once established.
We are in the business of creating nature corridors that can help our unique wildlife flow between all the non-native plants and sterile landscapes.
Our team has worked with plants in many countries and very different climates and environments. We understand and appreciate that by using what grows naturally in an area grows there for a reason – the plants and the wildlife have evolved together to work as a team.
To create that team we need to plant what is missing for the wildlife to be able to thrive. Florida has plants that grow in the nutrient-poor sand and not only thrive but support that wildlife.
To get the right balance you need larval host plants and nectar plants. If you miss one of these links then it does not work.
Florida has an 11% endemic plant population that is only found in very small pockets around the state. It is our aim and our mission is to help try and keep some of these incredible plants around and what better place than in your garden!
We know what works and what does not, turfgrass is not native and is a waste of one of our most valuable resources – water. By using natives you reduce water waste, chemical use, and also the use of fertilizer.
Natives just need an occasional helping hand to keep them flowering and providing nectar and food for our wildlife. It is our intent to educate our clients and hopefully everyone that visits this website with information that relates to the how-to of caring for native.
Our goal is to make your garden's habitat something that is going to last for years, not just for a season.
The plants we use are perennials, shrubs, and trees that have been present in this environment for millennia. You don’t need to change them every year. You will have seasonal colors, berries, and seeds for the birds and nectar for the butterflies and insects.
We are dedicated to what we do, we care and it shows in our passion and commitment to enhancing your garden habitat to give you pleasure for years to come.
We prefer using native, but Florida friendly can be beautiful too.
You will not notice we are there!
Add more colors to your garden!
