In 1984 Gary and Rene Hazelett came to Naples, Florida from Fort Wayne, Indiana with three children in tow. Their passions were family, gardening and business. That's when Gary stumbled upon a garden center on U.S. 41 named The Garden Exchange. He and Rene engrossed themselves in the business and purchased it along with its sister garden center Driftwood Nursery on 6th Avenue North in downtown Naples.
The two were then combined into the existing store at 5051 Tamiami Trail North. With that said, Driftwood Garden Center was born. In 1998 their second location followed. A custom designed garden center located in Estero, a booming area north of the Naples store. Both locations have proven to be a garden lover's delight. Driftwood remains a family owned and operated obsession.
With their two son's now managing the business, along with their extended family of over 90 dedicated team members. Our team has been green thumbs for decades and all are fanatical about personal service. We specialize in many areas, beginning with over an acre of shade houses boasting thousands of green and colorful interior and outdoor plants.

Services
Our In The Nursery section highlights a little bit of everything we carry here at Driftwood.
From our extensive selection of large outdoor landscape material to small house plants and even consumable material like fruit and herbs, we have what you need to make a beautiful and awe-inspiring garden best suited for you.
All of the plants we carry have preferences on watering, sun exposure and feeding, which can be a lot to remember.
For someone who has lived in southwest Florida for many years these preferences may not be anything other than common knowledge, but they could be completely reversed for individuals not familiar with the climate.
