Fort Myers Landscaper Discusses Tropical Style
People flock to the Fort Myers area because of its proximity to the coast, vibrant culture and year-round comfortable temperatures. With a healthy amount of beaches in the area and lots of crystal blue water, who wouldn’t want to feel like they’re on vacation every day in Southwest Florida?
You can see a tropical influence in many places in Fort Myers, from brightly colored buildings to coastal architecture, and adding a landscape design inspired by a tropical resort can make your home or business blend in with the island lifestyle so many people enjoy in our area.
Our landscaping company has been serving Fort Myers and the entire Southwest Florida area for many years, and we’re proud to be the trusted landscaping partner for many individuals and businesses in our community. Using our years of experience, knowledge of the area’s climate and soil types and the latest technology, we can design the perfect landscape for any outdoor space.
Many of our clients seek the popular tropical landscaping style which can be seen in several local properties, and we can help them achieve their ideal design. We don’t offer a cookie-cutter solution, instead we listen to the needs and wants of the customer, examine their space carefully and then make a complete plan to suit their outdoor area.
When we are planning a tropical landscape design, there are a few things we always keep in mind and we will detail those here to give you an idea of how to achieve the ideal tropical look.
The good news when you’re going for a tropical look in Southwest Florida is most of the trees, grass and plants you are choosing for their style are accustomed to the heat and humidity of our climate and the salinity of our soil. When you’re working with any landscape design, you must ensure your plants hold up to the climate and can thrive in the soil.
Another rule of thumb when we’re making a tropical design is to introduce many local, green plants but design them in such a way to keep the area looking professional and easy to maintain. A tropical setting features lush vegetation and sprawling trees, and when you make a design which accentuates these features but still gives a clean look you hit the sweet spot for a tropical look.
We always encourage our clients to have a little fun when they are going with a tropical design. Pops of color truly make the look, and there are many plants we can add to feature your desired colors. Whether you are adding a tiki bar, want to compliment the color of your home or just want it to look like a tropical paradise, adding the right color can make all the difference.
Our team specializes in tropical design, and if you want your space to feel like a resort then we’re here to help. We can work with any area, so if you want to get the yard of your dreams and feel like you’re on vacation every day, give us a call today to get started.
