Coral Gables is one of those places where the landscaping feels just as iconic as the architecture. The wide tree-lined boulevards, the old banyans, the shaded lawns, the Mediterranean-inspired gardens, everything here carries a sense of elegance and intention.

But maintaining that classic Coral Gables look isn’t easy. The soil drains fast, the sun is strong, the humidity is constant, and pests treat the Gables like an all-inclusive resort. A lawn can be perfect one week and stressed the next. Hedges can lose color. Palms can decline quietly. And fruit trees can go from thriving to struggling overnight.

That’s why caring for a Coral Gables landscape takes knowledge, consistency, and a personalized approach, not a generic “spray and pray” lawn program. We focus on long-term health, not quick fixes, so your lawn and plants stay beautiful no matter the season.

Our Lawn Care Services in Coral Gables

Ficus Hedge Care

Ficus hedges frame many Coral Gables properties, offering privacy and structure that matches the neighborhood’s classic look. But they’re highly sensitive to whiteflies and nutrient deficiencies. We keep them full, even, and vibrant with tailored treatments and routine monitoring.

Large Tree Care

Coral Gables is known for its majestic canopy, oak trees, banyans, mahogany, palms. These trees add beauty and shade, but they also need thoughtful care. We provide deep-root feeding, disease and pest protection, and health assessments that help trees stand strong through storms and long summers.

Organic Pest Control

Many Gables homeowners prefer natural solutions. Our organic pest options protect your lawn and ornamentals without harsh chemicals and are friendly to kids, pets, and the local wildlife that make the Gables so charming.

Lawn & Specialty Turf Care

Shaded lawns and bright-sun lawns both exist here, often on the same property. We tailor your turf program to match your home’s conditions, feeding warm-season grasses, strengthening roots, improving soil quality, and protecting from pests like chinch bugs, grubs, and sod webworms.

Citrus & Tropical Fruit Tree Care

From mangoes and avocados to citrus tucked in backyard corners, Coral Gables properties often include beautiful fruit trees. We help them stay healthy and productive with targeted nutrition, disease control, and leaf miner protection.

Commercial & Estate Programs

Estate homes, historic properties, large lots, and boutique commercial spaces in the Gables require reliable, ongoing care. We maintain full landscapes, turf, hedges, palms, ornamentals, with professionalism and consistency.

Palm Care Programs

Palms are a signature part of Coral Gables landscaping, but they’re also one of the first to show nutrient deficiencies. We tailor palm nutrition and protect palms from issues like lethal bronzing, scale, and weevils.

Orchid Care

Orchids thrive in the Gables’ humidity, especially when paired with shaded patios or tree-mounted installations. Our orchid program encourages more frequent blooming and protects against pests that love to nest in delicate petals.

Preventative Property Care

The best landscapes are the ones that stay healthy because someone is watching them closely. We monitor your entire property through the year, catching issues early and keeping everything looking clean, lush, and vibrant.

Best Grass Types for Coral Gables, FL

Warm-season grasses are the best performers here due to the heat, humidity, and mix of shade and full sun:

- St. Augustine
- Zoysia
- Bermuda
- Bahia

Each lawn in Coral Gables is different, some deeply shaded, some sunny, and we match your care plan to your exact conditions.

Seasonal Lawn Care Tips for Coral Gables

Spring

This is when the landscape wakes up quickly. Fertilize early, strengthen roots, and stop whiteflies before they start spreading.

Summer

Heat and humidity create the perfect environment for fungus and pests. Consistent watering, proper nutrition, and insect prevention are key to avoiding mid-summer decline.

Fall

Plants begin to recover from summer stress. We reinforce root systems, support new growth, and handle any lingering pest activity.

Winter

Even in “winter,” Coral Gables stays green. We adjust watering, watch for cool-weather stress on tropical plants, and keep pest control consistent.
