We did the same as Lovey2, anytime the irrigation company, a landscaping crew and the numerous other people who will visit your house to promote/sell their services, I took advantage to ask the name of plants and made a little graph of the yard. I have found most of my neighbors have done away with most of the original plantings and put in palms, etc. It's tempting, since when one thinks Florida, they think: palms and ocean. Wrong, we live in central Florida and will get frost. Palms are high maintenance!
Enjoy your new home, new property and new lifestyle!
