Founded in 2018 by Natalia Manrique and Mauricio Gonzalez, NaMa Native Landscapes was born out of a desire to offer a sustainable alternative to conventional landscaping. We believe in actively reversing the environmental and economic harm caused by traditional landscape practices by restoring Florida’s native ecosystems—one project at a time.

We are committed to educating and empowering property owners by demonstrating the benefits of thoughtful plant selection, ecological design, water-efficient practices, and long-term sustainability. Through native landscaping, we help create thriving plant communities that support biodiversity, enhance pollination, and protect South Florida’s delicate ecosystems.

​By choosing NaMa, you are investing in an approach that works with nature, not against it.
