Hello travel, always good to hear from you.

Some long time ago, I got a Tom MacGubbin book "Florida Gardener's Guide" and it's excellent, so I expect his other book to be also. I might have to ~pop~ and buy it.
I've explored the internet sites and likely will (when I actually get there for a length of time) visit the Florida extension office, great thought there.

For my birthday (plenty-something years old) I've asked for "Gardening and Landscaping in Central Florida" by Marlys Bell - a 5-star rated book on amazon directed towards central Florida.
