RE: Rotonda Environmental Resource Committee
We are excited to introduce a new committee in Rotonda! As transplants from other parts of the country, we were challenged by a steep learning curve. Have you heard about the threatened Gopher Tortoise, endangered Scrub Jay and native and drought- resistant Florida-friendly flora?
Do consider these options before clearing your lot or landscaping:
Work with your builder to preserve native flora that are drought-resistant and require little water, fertilizer or pesticide;
Plant or sustain existing habitat which supports Florida-native birds, butterflies and other wildlife;
Include Florida-native trees such as Sabal (Cabbage) Palms, Crape Myrtle and Slash Pines to help maintain our “real Florida”.
Please review the list of local and regional resources and learn more about how to:
Co-exist with native wildlife;Mulch with insect-resistant Melaleuca;Water efficiently to conserve and save your money;Reduce storm-water runoff;Manage yard pests;Protect waterways.What’s in it for you?
Mature trees provide privacy, shade and save you money by reducing your landscaping, water bills and help preserve Florida in its natural beauty.
