Anchor your coastal property with the resilient beauty of White Mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa). This native Florida evergreen tree is prized for its exceptional hurricane wind resistance, dense glossy foliage, and natural ability to stabilize shorelines and wet landscapes.
It thrives in full sun and consistently wet or aquatic soils while handling intense coastal salt spray and salty soil with ease. From March through September, White Mangrove produces clusters of delicate white flowers that act as a magnet for bees, butterflies, wasps, and other beneficial pollinators, followed by distinctive ribbed green fruits.
