When you think of Florida gardening, you probably picture palms, oranges, and maybe that one neighbor who tries to grow pineapples in a kiddie pool. But surprise! Florida is also a hotspot for growing some of the world’s tastiest culinary spices. On today’s zesty episode of Jene’s Tropicals, Jene spills the (bay) leaves on flavor-packed plants like allspice (spoiler: it’s not literally all the spices—sorry, overachievers), bay laurel, bay rum, curry leaf, coffee, tea plants, and more.
So if your garden is feeling a little bland, it’s time to add some sizzle, sass, and savory goodness. Spice up your life (and your backyard) with some tropical flavor!
Stop by Jene’s Tropicals at 6831 Central Ave., St. Petersburg, FL, or visit us online at tropicalfruit.com for all your spring plant needs.
