Q. Do you grow to order?
A. Yes. I grow to order for my design/installation clients. I grow some of the more challenging to find species to ensure they are available for our projects. Grow to order jobs need to be in the queue by November or December. Most species take 4 months to grow a 4” pot.

Q. Can you suggest a book on Florida native plants?
A. There are so many great books on Florida native plants it’s hard to pick just a few. All of Craig Huegel’s books are wonderful. He really does a relatable job of explaining the concepts of gardening in Florida’s soil and plant communities as well as detailed profiles on many plants from a biologist/gardeners perspective. Another excellent resource is Native Plants for Florida Gardens by Stacey Matrazzo and Nancy Bissett.
