Sawgrass Traditional to Tropical Landscape Design
Rockaway has assisted many homeowners in Ponte Vedra’s Sawgrass community that sought to upgrade from traditional to tropical landscape designs. Since 1982, Sawgrass has received international recognition as home to the prestigious PGA TPC Sawgrass Players Championship. The best years have gone for many of the community’s original landscapes. Rockaway Landscape Designer David Holloway walks us through a Summer 2023 traditional to tropical landscape design installation in Sawgrass to inspire you with the possibilities.
After meeting with and listening to the homeowner’s landscape likes and dislikes, Holloway proposed a front yard design plan that was approved and installed soon after. “We were trying to open up the area and get a little more color, creativity, and a little bit of a tropical feel,’ said Holloway. “This whole area now flows, has some color and interest, and it looks entirely different than what we started with out here.”
