Did You Know?

Through native plant sales and grant plantings, the Coccoloba chapter of the Florida Native Plant Society has provided over 100,000 trees to Lee County over the past decade.

Add organic mulch, either free from a tree trimmer or Florimulch and you're done! All the natives need!

Our natives vines such as cross vine are spectacular! Hummingbirds love them.
