What does a low-maintenance landscape mean in South Florida yards?

A low-maintenance landscape in South Florida uses drought-tolerant, storm-resistant plants, proper spacing, and effective drainage to minimize watering, pruning, and repair. It includes durable groundcovers instead of annuals, mulched beds to retain moisture, and hardscape features that reduce soil erosion. Proper lighting and privacy screens enhance usability without frequent upkeep. This design approach saves time and cost while ensuring the garden stays vibrant through heat and heavy rains.
