Testimonials
“We have personally been Southern Horticulture customers for many years. The nursery is a wonderland of lush plants, flowers and trees where one can shop for hours. The nursery staff is friendly and well informed about the benefits of native plants and eco-friendly fertilizers and pesticides. When my partner and I needed advice for our business’ parking lot and landscaping, the owners knew exactly what we needed from pulling permits and communicating with the city to picking just the right plants and materials. The punctual landscape crew executed their job quickly and professionally.”

1. Right Plant, Right Place.
Select plants suited to Northeast Florida's climate to ensure they thrive with minimal maintenance. By choosing the right plants, you reduce water use and create a healthier, more resilient garden.

2. Water Efficiently
Implement efficient irrigation methods like drip systems and water your garden in the early morning to reduce evaporation. This approach conserves water and keeps your plants healthy.

3. Fertilize Appropriately
Use slow-release, organic fertilizers to nourish your plants over time without harming the environment. Proper fertilization promotes robust plant growth and reduces nutrient runoff.

4. Mulch
Applying mulch helps retain soil moisture, suppress weeds, and improve soil quality. Mulching is a simple way to enhance your garden's health and appearance.

5. Attract Wildlife
Incorporate native plants to provide food and habitat for local wildlife, such as birds and butterflies. Creating a wildlife-friendly garden supports biodiversity and ecological balance.

6. Manage Yard Pests
Use integrated pest management (IPM) techniques to control pests with minimal chemical use. This approach includes biological, cultural, and mechanical methods to maintain a healthy garden.

7. Recycle Yard Waste
Compost yard waste to create a nutrient-rich soil amendment for your garden. Recycling yard waste reduces landfill use and enriches your soil naturally.

8. Reduce Stormwater Runoff
Design rain gardens and use permeable materials to manage stormwater on your property. These practices help reduce runoff, recharge groundwater, and prevent erosion.

9. Protect the Waterfront
Establish buffer zones with native plants along waterfronts to filter pollutants and protect aquatic ecosystems. This practice helps maintain water quality and prevent shoreline erosion.
