Wildflower garden especially in sunny moist areas.

Not readily available, but beautiful. Wildflower garden. Retain if in the landscape.

This is a sedge and not a grass, but it does have a grass-like growth form. Useful in ponds to provide cover for wildlife and water quality treatment. Good in stormwater ponds.

Succulent foliage. This plant is in the tomato family.  FNPS cannot vouch that the fruit is edible. Specimen plant, hedge plant

The bloom period is relatively long - lasting from early spring, well into fall. Wildflower garden.

Most reproduction is vegetative (Lonard et al. 2015). Plant in coastal wetlands on upslope side of mangrove swamps.

Poisonous if ingested. Groundcover in open, dry, sandy sites especially on dunes and the upper fringes of beaches.

Works well in a wildflower garden or as a low border plant.

This is an endangered species. Please acquire only from reputable nurseries. Endemic to the central ridges, esp. the Lake Wales Ridge. Specimen plant in a dry setting or grow as part of a scrub garden. This plant has very interesting zigzag branches which provide considerable winter interest.

This species is in the Nettle Family and looks much like stinging nettle. However, it does not have stinging hairs. Ground cover in moist sites in casual settings. Very attractive when young, but becomes somewhat weedy and tall as it matures. Probably better suited for restoration than landscaping.

Known for very dense wood, hence the common name.  Said to have the heaviest wood on any American tree. Specimen plant or small shade tree.

Small specimen flower or, en-masse, as a limited area groundcover. Flowers are produced in the morning and close by early afternoon.

Fruits are showy from mid-distance until spring. Salt tolerance is unknown but given known locations for the plant, we assume it is likely to be low. Specimen or hedge plant.

Water gardens and plantings of surface water management ponds.
