That's fantastic to hear from a local expert! 🌴😊 It's great to know we've hit the mark with plants that really thrive in Florida's unique climate. Since you're a Floridian, I'm curious - do you have a particular favorite among these plants? Or maybe there's a special trick you've learned for helping any of them flourish in your garden? Florida gardening can be so different from other parts of the country, with its heat, humidity, and sometimes unpredictable weather. Your experience is invaluable for other Florida gardeners (or those in similar climates) who might be watching. Thanks for chiming in with your local perspective. It's always awesome to get confirmation from folks who are gardening on the ground in specific regions. Keep enjoying your beautiful Florida garden! 🌺🌞

@@PlantDoHomeGarden I find when most plants say full sun they are not talking about our full sun, a small break from the hard afternoon sun seems to make everything in my lawn thrive better, the crape myrtels reall y do well in our full sun. I have a mostly shade lawn so I am able to grow lots because of it. I have lots of Orchids, a variety of gingers, l live in zone 9B understanding your zone and heat tolerance is the key for this area. Everything in the video is common in zone 9B i cant speak for the rest of the state. thanks

You should encourage use of native plants, not non-native. Walter’s viburnum, wild plum, native azaleas, fringe tree are excellent spring blooming alternatives. There are native Lantanas, the ones you show are invasive. Be careful about firebush as there are native and non native varieties available in nurseries. Same with salvias and blue porterweed. Native varieties are preferred.

Here come the plant police 🚨

Isn't lantana invasive in FL? Why recommend invasives when there's so many other options?....someone needs to do better research 🙃 American Beautyberry was a great choice, both native and beautiful

Lantana camara is invasive in Florida. It is also the #1 Lantana sold in big box stores and garden centers where they sell so-called sterile cultivars (1 in 1000 might produce a viable seed, but that seed will sprout a true-to-type child plant). L. montevidensis is less invasive. L. involucrata and L. depressa are both native to Florida.
