Our Story
C&C Martin Farms of Pumpkin Center began with something simple: a love of plants, the outdoors, and creating something meaningful close to home.
We’re Craig and Carla Martin, and Gulf South Plants grew out of years spent planting, experimenting, learning, losing a few plants along the way, and trying again. Living and gardening in the Gulf South taught us quickly that beautiful plants are not always the right plants for our heat, humidity, heavy rain, occasional freezes, and unpredictable weather.
Over time, that experience turned into a desire to help other homeowners make better choices for their own yards.
Our goal is simple: to make gardening in the South easier to understand, less intimidating, and more successful. We want to help people choose plants that are not only beautiful, but truly suited to where they live.
Whether you’re planting your first tree, creating a privacy screen, redesigning a landscape, or simply trying to figure out what will actually thrive in your yard, we want Gulf South Plants to be a resource you can trust.
Rooted in the Gulf South. Growing for generations.
