About our<br />
<strong>Plant</strong> Listings<br />
WHOLESALE ONLY<br />
PLANT SPECIES are listed alphabetically by botanical name. Don’t know botanical name? See<br />
Common to Botanical Name Cross Reference for botanical names <strong>of</strong> common plant names, on page 73.<br />
What is a <strong>Florida</strong> native plant?<br />
<strong>Plant</strong>s listed are <strong>Florida</strong> natives as identified in the Guide to the Vascular <strong>Plant</strong>s <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Florida</strong>, Third Edition, by Dr. Richard P. Wunderlin and Bruce F. Hansen, University<br />
Press <strong>of</strong> <strong>Florida</strong>, 2011, with a few carefully defined exceptions where growers<br />
recognize regional varieties or FANN has chosen to accept another authority regarding<br />
origin. Where regional or local species variation occurs, FANN growers<br />
are encouraged to name varieties until such time as the difference is recognized<br />
by taxonomists in an <strong>of</strong>ficial flora <strong>of</strong> the state. Examples include Chrysobalanus<br />
icaco 'Horizontal,' Ulmus americana '<strong>Florida</strong> population,' and Roystonia regia<br />
'<strong>Florida</strong> population.' General categories such as aquatic, wetland and wildflower<br />
plants are listed. We also list some cultivars, in accordance with our <strong>Florida</strong> <strong>Native</strong><br />
Cultivar policy, available online at www.<strong>Florida</strong><strong>Native</strong>Nurseries.org. Please<br />
contact us with any questions.<br />
How to use these plant listings<br />
<strong>Plant</strong> listings in this annual directory are best used as a general reference to identify<br />
plants that may be commercially available and which nurseries can grow<br />
them. More current inventories may be available online. Always phone to confirm<br />
availability.<br />
Sizes and specifications<br />
For each plant, available sizes (see abbreviations at right) are listed, with quantity,<br />
specifications and nursery contact provided for each size. In the size column, the<br />
+ sign indicates that larger sizes are available – please inquire at the nursery. Additional<br />
sizes may be listed on separate lines or may be indicated in the specs column.<br />
Planning a large landscape project?<br />
Please call your local native nursery before writing specifications or listing quantities<br />
for use in landscape work. Find out what is available in container sizes and<br />
avoid the trouble <strong>of</strong> revising detailed plant lists. FANN members will be happy to<br />
help with information on reasonable specifications for your design projects. To<br />
guarantee the size and quantity available for a particular species, you may want to<br />
consider contract growing.<br />
Important<br />
Some native species occur throughout a wide geographic area. For best results,<br />
use plants originating as close as possible to the final planting site – this practice<br />
helps to preserve biodiversity and genetic diversity, and, at the same time, provides<br />
the best assurance for successful establishment <strong>of</strong> the plants at your site.<br />
Many growers will provide local seed collection and propagation services.<br />
Wildlife Symbols<br />
<strong>Native</strong> plants are the primary source <strong>of</strong> food, shelter and nesting area for native<br />
insects, birds, and other creatures. All native plants provide habitat value, but<br />
some are extra outstanding. Throughout this directory, symbols are used to highlight<br />
these exceptional plants, based on grower observations as well as widely recognized<br />
and respected scientific references. This information is provided as a<br />
general guide only and does not take into account regional variations. To identify<br />
those species <strong>of</strong> butterflies and birds which frequent your area and can be attracted<br />
to your landscape with native plants, please consult with your native nursery,<br />
as well as local chapters <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Florida</strong> <strong>Native</strong> <strong>Plant</strong> Society (www.fnps.org),<br />
<strong>Florida</strong> Audubon Society, and North American Butterfly <strong>Association</strong>.<br />
