Florida
Florida is one of the most ecologically complex states in the U.S., with habitats ranging from coastal dunes and pine flatwoods to wetlands and tropical hardwood hammocks. The most beneficial native plants here are those that handle sandy soils, salt exposure, intense heat, seasonal flooding, and support extremely high biodiversity—especially pollinators, migratory birds, and wetland species.
