# About Tropical Gardens

Get to Know Your Local Sarasota Landscaping Pros

### Our History of Creative Landscaping Services

In 2007, Owner Ryan Empey founded what would become Tropical Gardens Landscape. Today, we’re here to help you create and maintain your own tropical landscape in Sarasota.

Our approach to building great custom landscapes is simple - we want to help you turn your outdoor spaces into destinations. 

Our years of experience in Landscape Design/Build will help you create great gathering spaces, and comprehensive maintenance plans to ensure that your new investments grow the way you imagine them.

We’re plant nerds first and foremost. Our landscape renovations can help your Sarasota landscape start fresh, grow beautifully and bring the family back outside.
