GARDENING
Take pride in your yard! If you live in South Coconut Grove you know what I mean. A beautiful spot on this earth.
Remember:
Lush does not mean trashy.
Pruning trees & overgrown brush is very prudent, especially around windstorm time (Hurricane)...remember what Katrina and Wilma did to Miami.
Use native plants, they belong here and they are used to the weather.
Please, please, please, stop planting ficuses. They don't belong here. Their root systems are shallow, and they fall over anytime the wind blows.
In fact, here is a list of problem trees. Don't plant them!
- Australian Pine
- Brazilian Pepper
- Chinese Tallow
- Melaleuca
- Tree Bamboo
- FICUS
These are some recommended trees:
- Geiger Tree
- Glaucous Cassia
- Silver Buttonwood
- Florida Thatch Palm
- Spanish Stopper
For even more info click on Natives, or spend the day at Fairchild Tropical Gardens.
