Four years after starting the company, Jenna left teaching to devote full-time attention to the garden center. Full-time for this couple essentially means 24/7 because there’s rarely a moment that the self-described ‘garden geeks’ are not talking about the business and learning about new varieties of plants and products. Jenna said, “We love what we do; no two days are the same!”

The business has expanded in response to customer needs. Jenna said, “Very often people wanted hardscaping to go with the landscaping. Rather than subcontracting and trying to incorporate another business, their schedule and material, we wanted to give customers the finished product that we can stand behind.” Projects, such as walls, walkways and patios led to outdoor fire pits, fireplaces and kitchens. The Southern Scapes team is always mindful when it comes to “matching a design with a customer, to be able to say, ‘that’s so them,’” Jenna added.

They design four-season landscapes so there is always something interesting blooming or changing color, and they offer advice and tips for maintaining a healthy environment.

Builders, landscape contractors, property managers and HOAs are among the customers that use Southern Scapes as a one-stop resource. Some palm trees can weigh up to 1500 pounds and it takes special equipment and know-how to plant them. Customers rely on Southern Scapes to plant, warranty and provide proper care instructions.

Being South Carolinians through and through, it delights Southern Scapes when customers come in who have just closed on a house. After moving from a colder climate, one of the first things they want to plant is a palm tree. The Southern Scapes logo with an iconic graphic and tag line, “Take Living Outdoors,” invites customers to enjoy that lifestyle, and they proudly assist them in the pursuit.

Southern Scapes Landscaping & Garden Center is located at 1310 Hwy. 501 in central Myrtle Beach. For further information on products and services call ( 843 ) 839-9148, email Jenna.SouthernScapes@Gmail.com or visit www.SouthernScapesSC.com.
