Our Services:
Estate & New Construction Landscaping
Turnkey Landscape Installation for Luxury Properties & New Builds
When you're building a multi-million dollar estate or transforming an existing property, the last thing you need is to manage five different landscape contractors. The Plant Nanny serves as your single point of contact — coordinating every aspect of your exterior landscape from architectural plans to final planting.
We work seamlessly with general contractors, architects, and property owners to deliver comprehensive landscape installations where nothing falls through the cracks, timelines are respected, and quality is never compromised.
What Sets Us Apart
You Get One Number to Call
No more chasing down the irrigation guy, the pond builder, the lighting contractor, and the tree installer. We coordinate all trades, manage all schedules, and ensure seamless execution. If there's a problem, you call us and we fix it.
Horticultural Expertise Meets Project Management
We're not just project managers who know nothing about plants. We're Florida native plant specialists and horticultural experts who understand what thrives in Zone 10. Every tree, shrub, and groundcover is selected for long-term health in Southwest Florida's climate; not just because it looks good on paper.
We Speak GC
Clear communication. Realistic timelines. Professional coordination with all trades. We understand construction schedules, change orders, and site logistics. You'll never have to babysit the landscape portion of your project.

Our Complete Scope of Services
Specimen Tree Sourcing & Installation
We source mature specimen trees — palms, live oaks, olive trees, tropical varieties — from premium nurseries across Florida and nationally. Interior and exterior installations with specialized rigging for indoor applications under skylights or atriums.
Naturalistic Water Features & Bioponds
Ecosystem ponds with biological filtration, recirculating fountains, waterfalls, and aquatic plantings. We partner with Aquascape-certified contractors to deliver water features that are beautiful, functional, and sustainable.
Complete Property Plantings

Working with licensed irrigation contractors to design and install smart controller systems, drip irrigation, spray zones, and water-efficient solutions optimized for Florida landscapes.

Coordination with lighting specialists for pathway lighting, tree uplighting, architectural accents, water feature illumination, and security lighting.

When your plant is in dire need of revival, our emergency plant rescue services can help! Whether it’s environmental issues causing your plant to turn brown or lose leaves, developing discoloration like leaf spot, edema from overwatering, has pests like aphids, mealybugs, spider mites, fungus gnats or scale insects, has fungal or bacterial issues like root rot, powdery mildew, gray mold(Botrytis) or bacterial blight; we can handle it all! We will arrive on site to assess the situation and determine if it’s something as simple as a nutrient deficiency, a change of lighting, a tweak to the watering schedule, some fresh soil in a larger pot or if more intensive treatment is needed.
