Understanding the Plants You’ve Chosen
Flowering plants all require soil, nutrients, sun, and water, but the amounts of each differ with each particular species. As you plan landscaping, identify where you would like to incorporate your planting beds or potted plants. Ideally, these areas will be close to a water source and in an area with plenty of sun.
Planting beds should include depth of height, texture, color, and variety. If you choose plants from the options we offer here at Beltran’s Nursery and Landscape, you can have confidence that they’ll thrive here in Southwest Florida, as they do here on-site. A few of our most popular varieties include the following:
- Ixora
This plant grows and displays clusters of flowers and comes in a variety of colors that bloom year-round. The semi-tropical beauty of the Ixora flowering plant will serve your landscape design well and will require soil that drains well along with plenty of sun exposure.
- Bougainvillea
For vibrant color in many different shades, include an array of bougainvillea in your landscaping plans. In this climate and with sufficient sunshine, you’ll enjoy flowering all year long. These plants can grow as large as you’d like, so you’ll need to prune them if you want to keep them small. They’re also drought tolerant after a period of establishment.
- Hibiscus
The hibiscus is as ubiquitous to Florida as the palm tree. We offer these flowering plants in an array of brilliant colors. Watering demands require you to keep this plant well-balanced; it’s only moderately drought tolerant. While you should give this plant a 3-foot berth, it will also thrive as a container plant, and it will be on the best possible display when kept between 4- and 6-feet heights.
- Firebush
An attraction for birds and butterflies, firebush is a hardy flowering plant. It’s hard to kill and will flourish in any landscape in Southwest Florida, even during the typical dry winter.
- Oleander
Cold-tolerant and gorgeous, Oleander will also grow well within your landscape and provide year-round aesthetic benefits. This flowering plant is great for borders or the backdrop of a planting bed.
