Q: What's the minimum order for delivery to Jacksonville?
There's no strict minimum, but to make delivery cost-effective we recommend at least $500 in plants or 3+ yards of coquina shell. Call 772-267-1611 to discuss your project.
What Are the Best Tropical Plants for Jacksonville Landscaping?
The best tropical plants for Jacksonville are Zone 9a/9b varieties that handle the local climate, soil conditions, and sun exposure. For Jacksonville's sprawling suburban yards, riverfront properties, and new construction communities, we recommend a layered approach: tall palm trees for structure, mid-level hibiscus and bougainvillea for color, and low ferns and ornamental grasses for ground cover.
For privacy screening, Clusia and Podocarpus hedges grow quickly in Zone 9a/9b and require minimal maintenance. For cold-hardy options, Windmill Palms and Sabal Palms handle occasional freezes without damage. And for ground cover, coquina shell at $145/yard is the lowest-maintenance, longest-lasting alternative to mulch.

Is Coquina Shell Available in Jacksonville?
Yes — coquina shell is available for delivery to Jacksonville at $145 per cubic yard. Coquina is a naturally occurring sedimentary rock from Northeast Florida, and it's one of the most durable, beautiful, and low-maintenance ground cover materials available. Unlike mulch, which needs replacing every year, coquina shell lasts indefinitely.
One cubic yard covers approximately 100 square feet at 3 inches of depth. For driveways, we recommend 4-6 inches; for walkways and garden beds, 2-3 inches is ideal. Use our cost calculator to estimate your project, or read our complete coquina shell guide for detailed application info.

Q: How much coquina shell do I need for a Jacksonville driveway?
A typical two-car driveway (12×30 ft) at 4" depth needs about 4.5 cubic yards — roughly $650 in material plus delivery. Use our calculator for an exact estimate.
Why Buy From Tropical Yards Instead of Big Box Stores?
Tropical Yards prices every plant 10% or more below Home Depot, Lowe's, and local Jacksonville nurseries. We're able to do this because we're a grower — not a retailer paying for showroom space, massive overhead, and middlemen. When you buy from us, you get nursery-direct quality at wholesale-adjacent pricing.
Big box stores in Jacksonville stock generic plants shipped from out of state that may not be suited to Zone 9a/9b. Our plants are selected specifically for NE Florida's climate. We also offer dump trailer delivery directly to your property, which big box stores don't — you'd have to rent a truck and haul everything yourself.
Q: Do you offer bulk discounts for Jacksonville landscaping projects?
Absolutely. For large projects — new construction landscaping, commercial properties, or HOA common areas — we offer volume pricing that goes even lower than our already-discounted rates. Call 772-267-1611 to discuss your project.
