This is a downloadable list of 50 Cold-Hardy Florida plants. Included in this are 17 Native Plants and the rest are Florida-Friendly Plants. They are primarily shrubs from small to large as well as some ground covers, grasses, perennials and vines*. They are arranged by alphabetical order by the common name. Also included is the Botanical name, Zone, Sun or Shade, Type of Plant and General Size. The list has been checked for invasiveness across several different sources.
This is how you should use this list:
Print out the list
Find your Zone and highlight all of the plants on the list that will grow in your Zone.
Look in your yard and see which plants are dead or extremely damaged and you want to remove. See if they are in sun, partial shade or shade.
Take the list to your local nursery (not box stores) and look at the plants and see which ones you like.
Check the sizes to ensure they will fit in the space and buy them. If you are looking to buy the Native Plants on the list, find a Native Plant nursery in your area.
* You will note that most of these plants are not tropicals. There is one, Firespike, which I am calling a perennial on this list. It will die down to the ground in a freeze and shoot up from the roots when the weather warms up. These shrubs on this list will comprise the ‘bones’ of your landscape- the permanent plants that you can rely on throughout the year. If you want to add tropicals you can put them in pots and bring them in or cover them but at least you KNOW that they will not make it through cold weather. Pick your battles!
This is a digital download. No physical product will be shipped. You will receive an email with access to the downloadable list.
