About Us

Flamingo Road Nursery is owned by Jim Dezell, a third generation South Floridian who purchased 8 acres of land in Davie in 1996 to build hydroponic greenhouses and grow herbs. In addition to growing herbs and lettuces for local chefs and grocery stores, Jim began to grow plants and trees for landscaping. The business grew and Jim’s dream of building a premiere garden center was realized upon the opening of Flamingo Road Nursery and Farmers Market in October of 2005. Our 10 acre garden center is located just 2 miles north of our herb farm, which grows a wide range of herbs and specialty lettuces for chefs across South Florida and Publix Supermarkets under our brand name Florida Fresh Herbs.

At Flamingo Road Nursery, we celebrate life in the tropics! We feel fortunate to be located in a year-round climate perfect for outdoor living where plants thrive! Our mission is to provide the broadest selection of premier quality plants and garden decor in a fun and beautiful setting. We take service seriously and are staffed with over 30 plant-loving and customer-centric associates – all wearing bright purple shirts for easy identification! To add to your enjoyment, we offer smoothies, juices and lunch specials in our air-conditioned Farmers Market!

We host seasonal events throughout the year, including South Florida’s Biggest and Best Fall Festival, our Christmas Celebration with fresh cut Christmas trees, our Spring Celebration with visits from the Easter Bunny, our Cajun Crawfish Boil and live music events. We are very family-friendly – and that includes your leashed pets!

Flamingo Road Nursery has won many local “Favorite Business” and “Best Of” awards, top ratings in Yelp and Google, as well as national recognition by the garden center industry. In 2012, we received the national Environmental Stewardship Award presented by the National Gardening Association. Flamingo Road Nursery is also a proud member of True Value and Jim is a Senior Member on the Advisory Board of Home and Garden Showplace, which consults with upper management of the hardware store co-op.
