  • Stroll through my garden with me to see some of Florida’s tropical plants/trees that last and look great In all seasons. I’m a landscape designer in Vero Beach, FL. Sharing some of my absolute favorite plants and trees I use daily in my designs. I’ll explain a little about their temperaments and what areas of the garden they can be used in. If you live along the Space or Treasure coast, this may be a helpful video for you. Hope it inspires the rest of the plant addicts like me to get out in their gardens and plant. If you would like more help with having me come out. My husband and I own Construction Landscape co. In Vero Beach, Fl. Reach out to us by 772-473-3218

    Thank goodness for your video. My brother lives in the Tampa Bay Area and while he’s been here for 20 yrs his front and back yards are basically blank slates. I have been researching for the last several weeks and yours is the first video that has given me that I was looking for. Thank you for providing the visual and practical information needed to make a start.

    I'm a 73 yr old grandma with diabetes and arthritic knees so do a lot solo. My wonderful son and his wife finally understand my wanting a tropical yard. We live in zone 9 in southwest Texas so it's mostly trial and error figuring out the plants that work here and the cut ants won't eat. You give me so much inspiration to keep on trying. We've started planting palms and bananas and will add 4 more palms in 2 weeks. I'm striving for a tropical place for all my granny friends to come and chill enjoying the time we have left. Rainfall in southwest Texas is minimal so I'm always praying for rain.
    Thanks so much for your ideas. Keep ur fingers crossed we'll get it done. I'm high risk for covid and live on a ranch so this will be my staycation oasis. Thank you.

    Oh Oh Oh .your Garden is mind blowing. Rightly said PARADISE ON EARTH. How beautiful.the collection of plants, the arrangement , the combination of plants , the variety you have . Not to miss the colour combination. Just superb. Any one and me .I have saved your video and have gathered so many ideas in my mind .have implemented them too. Mine is a very smaller version on my Huge living room box grills, but by looking at your video I have gathered and collected such beautiful exotic plants .
    Thanks to you .
    I can never get tired watching your you tube video.
    One thing I forgot to mention.the maintenance and upkeep of this Garden can be unimaginable. Will need a group of specialized people round the clock.

    LOVE THIS! I'm in PSL and will definitely be calling you when I'm ready to do my little house (front, exterior). Budget is tight, but space is small. The last major hurricane ripped everything out and I used the "blank time" to replace the roof and paint the house. Now I'm ready to see my home in bloom again! You have me so excited now!

    Love this video for inspiration because here in Puerto Rico we have no one making landscape dessign videos to take idea from, because is not the same looking a dessign and taking notes from a temprate climate landscape than from a tropical/subtropical climate landscape. All the plants you used here are plants i see often in houses over here and is fantastic to see them in groups and in a dessign as a whole. This was such a great video, im really thankful!!

    Greetings neighbor,
    I sold my home in Palm Harbor and moved into a condo on the intercoastal- It’s a lot of sweat equity but I miss my tropical garden! It was getting close to what you’ve created until I got sick. (Took 5 years to figure it out… Alpha-Gal- from a tick bite in North Fl. I’m passionate about awareness!).
    I’m going to call you to help with my Dads yard!
    From a former safety educator, I have to mention that I was a bit alarmed when I saw your grill under an overhang. Please keep a fire extinguisher nearby.
    Speaking of fire, a more natural looking FirePit area would tip the scales into perfection with your yard. We’ll done! Kudos!

    This is the best landscape video I have seen to date!! You are amazing at this!! You should have your own H&G tv show! Seriously!! Im sure Ill come back for future reference. Im located in Safety Harbor Florida. Located on the St Pete side of Tampa Bay. I recently moved here from Ft Lauderdale so its been somewhat of a challenge getting used to what I can plant here in zone 9b vs Zone 10b which seems to teeter right on the edge of the freeze and frost line. Ive always loved gardening since I was a little boy.and I love that my neighbors enjoy my yard as much as I do. Its even landed me a few landscape design gigs that I have enjoyed a bit of extra income with..But working on my own it is a LOT of work as you very well know.
    Everything of yours looks incredibly healthy, last year I lost a plethora of beautiful plants due to scale.. a Huge Mandevilia vine that was always in bloom and some beautiful mature cascading baby rose. I was recommended NEME OIL that did nothing.. this year im using malathion oil..and im curious what your opinion is on that vs the insecticide you used here.. I already forget the name. Also one more thing.. what is your go to fertilizer? And your opinion on the best palm fertilizer.. if you have time. 😉 Again, great show! Instant subscriber!

      Oh no! They do go after the tender plants. Wish I had a cure for bunnies when they decide to buffet on my garden certain times of the year. :(
