A family habitat nursery rooted in Southwest Florida
Flutter & Vine started the way most good things do — with a passion that outgrew the backyard. What began as a personal native plant garden in Southwest Florida became a propagation operation, and that became a nursery with a mission.
We specialize in Florida native plants and butterfly-friendly habitat plants for Southwest Florida gardens. Every plant we sell was propagated by hand, grown in Zone 10a, and chosen because it does real ecological work — supporting butterfly life cycles, feeding pollinators, and building resilient Florida landscapes.
Our philosophy is simple: native first, always intentional, and never carry anything invasive — no matter how popular it is at the big box store.
"We're not just selling plants. We're helping people understand what their yard can become."
Florida native plants form the backbone of everything we grow. They're adapted to our soil, our rain patterns, our heat — and they're what the butterflies evolved alongside.
We choose plants that support butterflies at every stage — not just nectar for adults, but host plants for caterpillars. A garden without host plants is missing the point.
Every plant is grown right here in Southwest Florida. Florida-provenance plants outperform shipped stock from northern ecotypes. Local roots matter.
