Growing Bird of Paradise Plants in Apollo Beach
Apollo Beach is USDA Zone 9b, with the open water of Tampa Bay keeping the canal-front lots noticeably warmer on cold nights than Ruskin, Sun City Center and Wimauma to the south and east. Waterfront plantings need salt and wind tolerance, so Sabal, Sylvester and Canary Island Date palms and Bougainvillea are the go-to choices there. Inland, frost is a fact of life a few nights each winter, and cold-hardy hedges and shade trees outperform tender tropicals.
