About

Grateful Clusia Nursery operates from an address on Pinetree Road in the southern part of Parkland, in an area that mixes residential properties with some of the larger lots that still support small agricultural and nursery uses closer to the city’s border with Coral Springs. As the name makes clear, the operation appears to specialize in clusia, one of the most widely planted hedge species in South Florida landscaping thanks to its dense growth habit, tolerance for salt and heat, and reliability as a privacy screen for pool decks and property lines throughout the region.

A nursery built around a specific hedge specialty like this one typically serves the landscaping trade heavily, supplying contractors and installers with consistent, healthy stock at a scale that a general big box garden center’s rotating inventory cannot always match. That said, specialty growers focused on a particular plant often sell directly to homeowners too, particularly for larger hedge installation or replacement projects where buying a significant quantity of clusia directly from a grower can mean real savings compared to a retail nursery’s per plant markup. Given how much of South Florida’s suburban landscaping character depends on clusia hedges specifically, a dedicated local grower represents a genuinely useful resource for Parkland homeowners tackling landscaping projects themselves.

A search of Florida’s corporate registration database did not turn up a matching business entity under this name, leaving the operation’s formal business structure unconfirmed. It also was not possible to determine from available sources whether the nursery maintains any kind of regular retail access for individual customers or operates purely as a wholesale supplier working through landscaping contractors and referral relationships, a distinction that matters quite a bit for anyone hoping to simply drive out and buy a few plants without an existing trade relationship or an appointment set up in advance.

The Pinetree Road address is confirmed to sit within Parkland’s official city limits according to federal geocoding records. Anyone interested in sourcing clusia or other landscape plant material from this nursery should call ahead first, both to confirm the operation is still active and to ask directly about whether retail sales to individual homeowners are available, since specialty growers of this kind can vary widely in how open they are to walk in or call ahead retail business versus working strictly through established landscaping and contracting relationships.
