Greetings,
We are very pleased to announce that the new The Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ Guide to Plant Selection & Landscape Design is now available on line. The Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ Guide to Plant Selection and Landscape Design is intended as a companion to The Florida Yards & Neighborhoods Handbook.
The guide is intended for homeowners who want to take the next step and design their own Florida-Friendly Landscapes. Included is information on landscape design strategies, tips on how to solve landscaping design problems, and the new plant list that contains many of the UF/IFAS-recommended Florida-Friendly plants for each region of the state. The landscape design portion includes unique visual representations of transformed landscapes.
The link will be on our web page soon. A limited number of copies are slated for printing this month. We will let you know when they arrive.
This time it’s bigger and better than ever!
While the publication was a team effort among a number of faculty and staff both inside and outside the state office, I thank the FFL team, especially Brian Niemann, and Dr. Gail Hansen, Tom Wichman, Erin Alvarez, Dr. Bart Schutzman, our agents, along with Dr. Mike Thomas, Mike Scheinkman, and Heather Ritchie at the Department of Environmental Protection.
Thanks also to all of you who provided photos and information, and Go Gators!
