Marianne Ravenna offers Creative Tropical...

…outdoor environments exclusively to property owners on Sanibel and Captiva Islands. Years of design and construction experience, a background in horticulture and a deep familiarity with local and native species, allows owners to express their ideas and wishes, through planning, sourcing, execution and maintenance.

With dozens of completed projects on the barrier islands, Marianne works with owners to customize approaches, entryways, outdoor living areas and balcony/window vistas to complement and add significant value to your property and lifestyle.

On Sanibel, specific vegetation codes apply to many projects and include regulations to utilize native plants, which provide for energy and water conservation as well as wildlife habitat. Marianne has unequaled fluency in native species and Sanibel Code requirements, a working relationship with growers, suppliers, nurserymen and city officials and the ability to design and supervise projects to both the owners’ satisfaction and the city’s approval.
