Great comment, this video is full of information!
I have heard some horror stories about HOA making life difficult for some homeowners when it comes to gardening. I am north of Tampa and have my vegetables in the back garden and everything else is flowers or shrubs. No HOA and no grass. I get lots of compliments from neighbors and others because my garden is really nice. My lot is small but very productive and I have managed to keep most of my vegetables growing year round, zone 9b, with lots of free compost from the community mulch pile. It's heavy and dirty bringing the compost home but last year I covered my native sand with five to eight inches of black compost and it really helped. Now if we just had some rain!
Absolutely awesome. We need more of that in the world. 🤜🤛
Herbs like rosemary would do well in the front and look appealing to the HOA
Definitely, they can grow to be large shrubs!
Beautiful garden!! I’m also an Orlando backyard HOA gardener in East Orlando. I love that you mention familiar nurseries 🥰.
I’m getting started here in East Orlando. Would love to see what you’ve done.
Just started growing fruit trees in north tampa, got 4 grafted mangos & 2 grafted avocado. Not counting my mother non-grafted 35ft avocado & mango tree, wish I can cut them but I'll grafted them next year. Got 2 plum trees, 1 golden delicious apple tree, 1 lapins cherry tree, 4 improved Meyers lemon, 4 types of citrus oranges dwarf, 1 peach tree , 2 types of dragon fruit, cane sugar, banana, 2 wonderful pomegranate, 2 Barbados cherry tree
in an HOA?
I live in south Florida and in a HOA too. I have a small backyard but my front yard is pretty decent. I have 30 fruit trees although some are in pots plus some vegetables and lots of flowers for the bees 🐝
Nice!

I’m back for another update of your beautiful garden. It’s amazing to see the changes in your plants over time. I look forward to watching your garden grow! I love watching my garden grow a little each day, that is my favorite part of gardening. It’s so fun to have the growth documented over the season to look back at and see progress. I love that about being a garden UA-camr. Let’s learn & grow more together!
I found you on tik Tok recently! Was fun to see a full tour of your garden
She’s got something pretty cool that’s Forsure.
Love hearing about your garden. Makes me want to expand my small kitchen garden.
You can do a lot in a small space!
I just found your channel, So excited to find varieties of plants for our hot climate. Thank you for your hard work and in-depth explanation
Welcome!
you’re killing it!!!! absolute beauty and abundance all around you. thank you sistren!
I enjoy her ticktock’s. This was a treat to see a video!
Great!
Interesting, what you say will not grow here in Orlando, has grown for me. I've had success with Broccoli, collards & tomatoes throughout the summer. You have a very nice, well-organized garden. You are the third person I've listened to who said I can plant my fruit trees close together. Great! I will take my pink grapefruit & lemon out of the container and put them in the ground. I put my sugar apple in-ground and it is doing so much better. I had to cut down my 2 Moringa trees; they were at least 12 ft. tall. I planted them in my swale. They were growing slanted toward my fence & fire pit. Hurricane Ian made it worse. My soil is pure sand. One is already growing back. I decided to keep it manageable around 6-8 feet. I learned a lot from your video, thanks!
Awesome tour!
I congratulate you for your garden. I live in Kissimmee and have my own backyard garden in an Hoa. Glad to find un “alma gamela”
Help make more videos!!! 😁 ⬇️

Thanks for the tour. This video has a lot of info. Can you update your vid description when you get a chance to drop the names of some of these for noobs like me? :) I am inspired! I’ve been in my home almost 3 years but haven’t planted much because I’m not great at keeping up with it! My husband has been cultivating our pineapple tops for years so we have a few of those in pots.
Happy to find another Florida garden AND HOA! 💕 south Florida though
That’s string bean the short one, and long bean are green purple or red, you can cook them (stir fry) 👍👍, love your garden 👍👍❤️❤️
I’m in Panama City and this was so helpful! Thanks so much!
Good to hear!
So my best friend moved there and it's hard but she has a long garden do to her black mesh cloth canopy. She can higher it to lower it . Right now she's like me rehydrating every day and getting our jars full. She's making some money on her Herbs she dehydrated and bag's she's saling to grower's markets on fresh veggies, I'm so excited for her and being a ER Dr there from Oregon. Food saves lives and not everyone can grow I enjoy you know so much, I'm in Oregon and have many banana tree's, pineapple plants, I just planted 12 Pineapple Guava Shrubs yum, eat the flower fruit and make tea from the leaf. I can't grow mangoes but she ship's them to me. At this stage of food problems I ship her anything to try over there. As for me trying. I can't believe how much you know your very special so keep it going people don't have what you do about plants.
Enjoyed your video. I have always wondered what you are able to grow in Florida in a garden. I live in lower Michigan so are limited in what we can grow due to climate.
Love it!!
Great! 👍🏼
What do you spray to for insects? Can you link the items you use? Thanks! We are starting to grow things in our yard in Texas (on the coast) and it's so cool to see you growing so much successfully! We are realizing we can literally grow SO much! We started several varieties of tomatoes and they are rocking! Thanks for posting such an awesome video! :)
I only use BT or Spinosad for the worms/chewing insects at first signs of damage.
If you kill our insects you're going to kill your pollinators and poison yourself .
Love all the things that you are growing in Orlando. I live here as well, so this video was super interesting. I have not seen anyone else grow the baseball size squash. How do you spell the name of it please?
Tromboncino
Awesome video
thank you for the very informative video. I have been trying to grow vegetables in central Florida mostly unsuccessful. this video answers many questions.
Love finding Florida gardeners! I live in Davenport
Jerras got the hookup on locally adapted seeds!
Very inspiring....thx you
Awesome, thanks!
I have the invasive cuban/Italian oregano, always cutting it fir house, very fragrant wonderful, was given me by a friend fir mosquitos...you will not see one where they are planted, they don't come anywhere near my front ir back porches where we like to dut at sundown, I have all in and out if my flowerbeds, under azalea/cherry bushes, plumbago hedges...no trouble.
you can grow in your front yard now. sb82 look it up Ron Desantis passed it. love your video
Hello, thank you for the video! Would you mind sharing what the name of that Hybrid basil is and/or where to find it? Thank you!
Incredibly space-efficient garden! I have the same two avocado varieties as Jerra: Brogden and Florida Hass. Also in zone 9b (Tampa). I planted them in the ground this last spring so neither have produced any flowers or fruit yet. I'm curious though what Jerra thinks of the taste/texture of the Florida Hass. I was hesitant to purchase it because they only reviews I found about it online were that it was subpar quality compared to the California Hass and has fibers sometimes present in the flesh. I ended up pulling the trigger and buying it because it was the most readily available A type variety that I could find in local nurseries that was suited to surviving and producing in Florida.
So have fun .finding gardener in florida . I live in lakeworth florida . I have garden also.
Gov. Ron DeSantis signed SB 82, legislation protecting the right of all Floridians to grow vegetables and fruit on their own property.
I will never live in an HOA , we had a condo for a few years. Such a pain.
I’ll keep my home out of and control freeks in any HOA.
Very nice garden

Will peaches and nectarines that you have also will grow well in southwest Florida? If they do, do you have varieties you recommend?
Thank u !
✌️✌️✌️
What was the baseball bat sized squash she mentioned? The green beans sound very interesting too! I’d like to grow apples here in Venice Fla. i wonder if they’d grow here too.
Where did you buy your Italian tree tomato seeds ?
I'm trying to grow nine star broccoli also in Florida zone 8b.
How does it do up there?
@@floridafreeliving so far I have very large plants that haven't produced any thing.
Did she grow her grumichama from seed or buy it already established? I've got some seeds I "liberated" from a bush I found, but I've read they are really slow growers.
I bought mine as a 3 gallon tree. It’s been growing in this spot for 1 year.
Yeah just keep it healthy and it’ll grow. Maybe look into purchasing another and planting them near one another.
Where can you get the avocado tree mentioned ?
Florida statute 720 prohibits HOAs from regulating homeowners putting in Florida native species of plants under the Xerescaping subsection. USF has a publication on Xerescaping that makes for an easier read than trying to filter through the various parts of Florida law as all the laws are not consolidated entirely under 720.
👌👌👌👌👌
Can you grow tomatoes indoor in FL in summer?
I would recommend growing tomatoes outdoors during the winter months.. although Everglades Tomato tend to do well outdoors during the summer.
I plan on moving to the Orlando area in a couple years and will very likely pick a neighborhood with an HOA. I have 2 questions.
1. Does anyone have any tips for finding HOAs with lenient gardening rules? Or do I have to search for the home first and then ask about the rules. That sounds like a lot of work.
2. I have heard about Florida Senate Bill 82, which prohibits local governments from banning vegetable gardens on any part of a residential property. The bill does not seem to mention non-governmental (HOA) prohibitions and rules. A couple comments here say that it does force HOAs to allow gardening. I am skeptical. Does anybody have evidence to support the notion that HOAs gotta let you grow stuff you like? I'd be happy to find out they are right.
Our HOAs suck
What was the name of the Italian squash you grow
I wish people would stop saying better soil . Bad soil is a myth. Our soil is perfect for plants that are well adapted to it .
Organic material is life.
Um, Orlando soil is mostly sand with little organic matter. In order to grow all of this plants she needs to amend the soil,therefore ‘better’ soil. We have conservation behind our home and only a few very hardly natural plants can’t make it out there. Occasionally I’ll run out of room in our yard and plant something on the conservation. Nothing ever lives. The plants always die with a year because the ‘natural’ soil is sooo difficult to grow in.
Any native plants???
It is fully illegal for any hoa , city gov , or any gov body to try to prevent the growing of food or florida friendly landscape on your own property in florida since 2019, even in your front yard . Pass it on
It prohibits government subdivisions from banning it. HOAs are not classed as such so they can continue banning it.
@@theuglykwan incorrect according to my lawyer . Statute 604.71. This statute states that no county, municipality, or other political subdivision=hoa in Florida can regulate vegetable gardens on residential properties.
get rid of the grass and grow edible landscaping
tom kai gai with your lemon grass
The right to farm act removes the management rights of hoas, city, county, and some management districts.
If they bother you, you have the legal right to tell them to take a hike as long as you are growing food plants.
Thanks for sharing the video. You need to do your research. Two years ago our governor passed a law. Where you can grow any kind of FOOD. On your property. In your front yard backyard or the side of your house. Mo matter what your HOA or POA has to say. The bill over Powers your HOA in your POA. sorry I’m not computer savvy so I don’t know how to post it for you. Have a great day. God bless y’all.
The 2019 Florida law (Fla. Stat. Sec. 604.71) states that no county, municipality, or other political subdivision in Florida can regulate vegetable gardens on residential properties. However, HOAs & condominium associations are not governmental subdivisions; they are private non-profit corporations, so HOAs can still regulate or ban front yard food gardens in Florida. That's one reason why I'd think twice before moving into a HOA property.
HOAs make me so sad. I feel like HOAs should allow for far more growing and gardening. As long as it looks good and isn't a nuisance what business is it of the neighbors what you grow?
What was the Instagram page name?
