Joe Mazza's Florida Friendly Yard

Master Gardener, Dr. Joe Mazza is another in a growing number of Manatee County homeowners that has incorporated the principles of Florida-Friendly landscaping into his property.  We originally recognized his landscape in October 1996 and recently returned to re-recognized his Florida-Friendly Yard.  A home garden produces large tomato plants and lettuce that has re-seeded itself from a previous growing season.  A grape arbor, palms, and many colorful plants ensure an eye-pleasing landscape.  Dr. Joe's yard received the Bronze Magnolia recognition.  Congratulations!!
