Miami Landscaping FAQs

What survives Miami hurricanes?
Low-profile, flexible-stem native plants (muhly grass, firebush) and wind-rated palms fare best.
What plants grow in Miami limestone?
Alkaline-tolerant natives: bougainvillea, plumbago, royal poinciana, ixora. Add sulfur to lower pH for acid-lovers.
Do I need a permit for a pool cage in Miami?
Yes — Miami-Dade requires permits for screen enclosures. Structural requirements are hurricane-code based.
What are the best palms for Miami?
Sabal palm (FL native, hurricane-resistant), Royal palm (iconic), and Montgomery palm (low maintenance).
When is the best planting season in Miami?
October through March — cooler and drier. Avoid planting in summer heat and hurricane season.
