About Ivy Hernandez
Born and raised in Florida, I’ve spent over a decade in the environmental field, but my love for nature started much earlier—growing up in Key Largo, surrounded by South Florida’s rich and diverse ecosystems. My passion for native plants took root at Florida International University, where I studied chemistry, environmental science, and engineering. My first butterfly garden was a gift to my daughter, and ever since, I’ve been designing and installing gardens that bring people closer to their local ecology.
With an analytical background and a deep appreciation for South Florida’s unique environment, I create gardens that are not only beautiful and low-maintenance, but also thoughtfully tailored to each homeowner’s space, needs, and style. My goal is to empower homeowners to work with nature, ensuring their landscapes thrive for years to come—both as functional ecosystems and as sources of joy.
