I agree. When I want to start a garden in a grassy area, I do till the yard and then heavily mulch with leaves and such; that is the only time I till the area, after that the soil organisms keeps the soil healthy and aerated. Furthermore, many of the "weeds" that populate the garden are in fact actual Florida wildflowers, such as Florida betony and spiderwort, some of the best plants for attracting pollinators.
The seed packets you find in large garden centers are typically composed of non-native species. These species are not acclimated to Florida's conditions and will likely not do well in a Florida landscape. As well, they often do not provide the resources that our native wildlife are acclimated to. It is best to purchase native seeds from reliable sources, such as the Florida Wildflower Growers Cooperative (www.floridawildflowers.com).

You should not be promoting herbicides to kill the lawn. You should promote natural ways of doing that. Turn off!

La Florida means either "in Bloom" or in a flowering state. they should have called it "El Horno" or in english " the Oven" lol. happy landscaping.
La Vaporera would be even more accurate.
Wonderful information! Thank you!
Why can't we just buy seed packets in box stores? We shouldn't have to hunt these down.
