Good luck to you in your new home and landscaping. The Sumter County Master Gardeners offer a free, informative session titled “Florida Friendly Landscaping.” It’s usually offered at Rohan Rec Center. Watch the Daily Sun for the schedule. I think you will find the content interesting and helpful, and it will likely save you money by avoiding mistakes. Right plant, right place.

Take your time in making decisions.

The plants installed by the developer, even though you’re not thrilled with them now, are typically Florida friendly. Give them a chance while you learn as much as possible about available options.
