The owners and staff at Flamingo Road Nursery are true masters of marketing. With the tagline, "Flamingo Road Nursery - Celebrating Life In The Tropics!," the garden center markets more than plants and gardening goods. It sells the Floridian lifestyle. The garden center's park-like setting features tropical plants and palms, and six separate specialty shops are connected via covered walkways around a central pond. The setup underscores the celebration of Ft. Lauderdale's 12-month outdoor lifestyle. Last year, Flamingo Road Nursery opened a 3,600 square foot patio shop, which has helped increase profitability during the slower summer months. Monthly cookouts with free hotdogs and sodas, as well as a Butterfly pavilion, bring customers into the store during the off-season. Located on a busy road that sees 30,000 cars each day, the cookouts generate significant traffic for the garden center. All this, in addition to a well-trained and extremely knowledgeable staff that receives education on everything from plant care to tools and water features, make Flamingo Road Nursery a truly revolutionary retailer.
