Q: What plants and palms will need to be protected during freeze? PDF Print

A: We specialize in growing Florida-friendly, drought-tolerant plants that weather freezing temperatures well.

However, we also sell some popular tropical/seasonal items imported from Miami/Homestead that will require extra care when temperature falls below freezing (also, read article on how to properly protect your plants from freezing here). They are:

  • Adonidia Palm
  • Allamanda
  • Arboricola
  • Areca Palm
  • Bird of Paradise (Orange/White)
  • Black Magic
  • Blue Daze (If damaged by freeze, cut back & it will grow back.)
  • Bougainvillea
  • Cardboard Palm
  • Cassia
  • Croton (Mammy & Petras)
  • Dipladenia
  • Foxtail Palm
  • Gardenia
  • Ginger
  • Hibiscus (If damaged by freeze, cut back & it will grow back.)
  • Ixora (Maui Red)
  • Jasmine (Carolina) (If damaged by freeze, cut back & it will grow back.)
  • Jasmine (Star) (If damaged by freeze, cut back & it will grow back.)
  • Lady Palm
  • Lantana (purple, white & yellow) (If damaged by freeze, cut back & it will grow back.)
  • Mandevilla
