What to Expect After Florida’s Coldest Temperatures in a Decade

This winter delivered some of the coldest sustained temperatures many Florida growers have seen in over a decade. Multiple nights below freezing — not just a quick dip — pushed landscapes outside their normal seasonal patterns.

If your garden looks brown, sparse, or unusually stressed right now, you are not alone.

And more importantly — this does not mean failure.

Cold like this reveals something important: which plants hold structure, which recover with time, and which were placed in spaces that may need better layering.

That’s exactly why we created this guide.

Stop Guessing.
Start Designing for Winter.

inter Risk Tier Guide was written specifically for USDA Zone 9 growers in Central Florida and similar climates — places that experience both frosty winters and hot, humid summers.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:

  • Identify which plants provide reliable winter structure

  • Understand which tropicals naturally go dormant

  • Recognize frost-triggered collapse vs seasonal rest

  • Layer evergreen anchors with seasonal performers

  • Design landscapes that recover beautifully after cold

This isn’t generic gardening advice.

It’s practical planning for real Central Florida conditions.
