  • November 2025

As part of the landscape budget, the VCA provides plant replacement for damaged, dead and aged out plantings on our common areas. One of the most impressive new projects is at the intersection of River Village Way and Verandah Blvd. These beds are now part of the VCA’s purview, they have been freshened up with color and eco-conscious plant choices. Take a look next time you go past. FPL utility boxes in this area were screened with new hedges.

Another replacement project is on Verandah Boulevard near Edgewater. In this area failing Firebush was replaced with Florida native and Florida friendly plants: Silver Saw Palmetto, Dwarf Fakahatchee Grass, Red Oleander and Dazzle.

Some of the other renovations include the Oak Bend intersection, Dog Park parking screen, Sanctuary Point cul-de-sac and opening views along the Dog Park Pond.
