Here in South Florida, we know how to take advantage of being outside. From the golf course to the beach, we love spending time in the beautiful weather and sunshine. Even our homes are built to bring the beauty of the outdoors into our living space – from screened-in pool cages to sun rooms and lanais, this is Florida, and we want to enjoy it!

One of the most special things about living in a climate like ours is that the plants and flowers are uniquely beautiful. We decorate with hardy palms and succulents, and tropical blooms including birds of paradise, bromeliads, and hibiscus. Orchids and bamboo are also popular ways to adorn our outdoor spaces with flowers that withstand the heat with brilliant, vibrant color.

Because of all the open air and glass windows looking out across beautiful vistas, Florida homes have a unique opportunity to utilize floral elements to decorate outdoor living spaces. Port Charlotte Florists have a wide variety of colorful flowering plants in pots; these plants are easily placed outside, moved from sun to shade, or even brought back indoors in extreme heat. This makes potted plants the ideal plant to embellish our outdoor areas. Create a staggered shelving system, or create colorful artistic pedestals for these flowers to make the display quintessentially Florida.

Many people in this area don’t enjoy working outside doing yard work in the heat; many others are in maintenance-free homes that do not require gardening. Satisfy your green thumb with potted plants, hanging baskets, dish gardens and succulents to make your solarium or lanai look like a tropical rain forest or lush garden. Port Charlotte Florist has everything you need to bring these outdoor areas back to life with vivid, gorgeous plants and flowers.
