Hedge plant.

Fragrant. Understory tree in moist areas.

Depending on cold, this may keep its leaves all year or die back during the winter. In colder areas, consider growing it as an annual. It adapts well to semi-shady to shady well-drained conditions. Herbarium specimens from Marion and Alachua counties were in disturbed "garden" localities - not mapped here.  Not planted, but highly unlikely to have appeared other than through human disturbance. Used as a ground cover, one of the relatively few Florida plants that both forms a low dense cover and survives shade.

Interesting silky-looking foliage. Tallish groundcover in mesic (moist) areas. Can be planted in groupings in shady areas. Despite the name, the leaves are pretty, almost silky or velvety in appearance.

Two varieties exist, both occur in this area. Wildflower garden.

Forming a thicket for wildlife protection.

This is a sedge. Most Rhynchospora species are wind pollinated. The white bracts of this species attract insects. Wetland garden or informal savanna.

Weeping branches. Specimen tree, hedge, or screen.

Naturalistic woodland landscapes.

This species has a cold requirement. It cannot be grown successfully much south of its native range. Early spring wildflower. Can be planted as a seasonal groundcover in a shady location.

This low growing plant is a good ground cover

Not salt tolerant of inundation by salty or brackish water. Low/no tolerance of salty wind or direct salt spray

It's paint-chip white and brown-green bark provides winter interest. The natural range is from  north Florida into southern Canada.  This species has been planted well south of its range and is occasionally collected from places (such as the median of I-75, near old homesites,  and near mine reclaimation areas) where it likely got there due to man's activities.  It has also been widely planted in mined areas. Frequently used as a yard tree or as a shade tree in parks. Best used where its large size won't overwhelm the surroundings.

Can be grown as a groundcover. This is a species on the southern limits of its range in North Florida.  Its known occurrence (ISB 2020) is sparse in FLorida. Informal plantings, especially butterfly gardens. Useful for erosion control.

This is a wetland plant. It is rarely grown, but it has potential in appropriate sites. Hedges, screening.

While it is related to chestnuts, its not generally subject to chestnut blight, and if it gets it, will likely recover. Natural settings as a small shade tree or large shrub.

While this tree has a limited native distribution in Florida, it also occurs as far west as Texas in similar types of settings. Shade tree. Can be used as a street tree. Yellow fall color.

This is one of the world's most widespread species. Multiple subspecies exist  within Florida with two being widespread. Because of its tolerance of acidic soils, this is sometimes used for reclamation of acidic soil areas. Adapted to relatively frequent fire. Groundcover. This is one of the few ferns that can handle sun. Height will depend on variety with bracken ferns from South Florida typically being much larger than those from further north.

Sensitize to cold weather. Small specimen plant, foundation planting, general cover plant in shaded areas.

Specimen tree. Use only where roots will be undisturbed.

Found from Alabama (probably also in Mississippi), east into Florida and up the coastal plain to Virginia with occasional outlying populations. Trapping insects in the trumpet-shaped leaves is an adaptation to  nutrient-poor soil conditions of wet or frequently flooded areas in the Atlantic Coastal Plain. Insects are lured into the slippery waxy portion of the upper pitcher tube by attractant odors and then slide down a coating of ultra-fine, downward point hairs, hitting the digestive enzymes. Bog gardens.
