Home & Garden: Beauty on the bay

This home on Bay Shore Road in Sarasota has been under the care of Gardening South Inc. for the last 15 years. Hidden behind an iron gate covered in Confederate jasmine, the home includes tennis courts, an Olympic-size pool, a pool house and an exquisite view of Sarasota Bay.

Gardening South Inc. has worked with the homeowners to provide a wide variety of plants, flowers, bushes, palms and fruit trees throughout the property, so that the landscape is bright and colorful year-round. The owners love to entertain, so the constant changing of colors and flora in bloom is key.
