Practical Takeaways from Our Installations


  • Choose Native Plants: As highlighted in our projects, native plants require less water and are more resilient to local pests. Consider incorporating plants like Seagrape or Coontie for a low-maintenance approach.


  • Smart Irrigation Systems: Upgrade your irrigation system to include drip irrigation or smart controllers that adjust watering schedules based on weather conditions, which can save you money in the long run.

  • Mulch for Moisture Retention: Applying mulch not only looks great but also helps retain soil moisture, reducing water needs. This is particularly beneficial during dry seasons.

Native Plant Installation


In another inspiring project, we transformed a property with a stunning native plant garden. The homeowner initially had an overwhelming amount of gravel and empty spaces that offered little to no habitat for wildlife. By removing a significant portion of the gravel and incorporating a variety of native species—like Florida Friendly Plants—we crafted an inviting and lush landscape.

The result? A thriving landscape that’s not only visually appealing but ecologically responsible. It was a delight to see our vision come to life, and the homeowner feels proud knowing they’re contributing positively to the environment.


Another one of our most exciting recent projects took place in a quaint neighborhood just off the coast. The homeowner wanted to replace a water-consuming grass lawn with sustainable native plants that require minimal upkeep. We introduced a range of native species, including Muhly Grass and Firebush, both hardy and attractive options for the South Florida climate. This project also included a state-of-the-art irrigation system that significantly reduced water wastage.


In this project, not only did we improve the aesthetic of the yard, but we also enhanced its ecological value. Native plants provide food and habitat for wildlife, which is a huge win for the local ecosystem.

Plus, we were able to reduce the homeowner’s annual water bill by approximately 40%, highlighting the financial benefits of sustainable landscaping.
