GB Grow
My wife and I hired Gabe with a very tight timeline to come up with a totally new landscape design for our front, sides and rear pool areas. All we asked for was for him to come up with a “tropical feel”.
Gabe and his crew blew us away!! The design and the plants / palms he chose were spectacular. He got all of the work done ahead of our schedule and we couldn’t be happier. GB Grow Lawn and Landscape is the best!!!

EXCELLENT Based on 42 reviews Cole Myers2025-04-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gabe was more than amazing to work with, and we’re really happy with how our backyard turned out. We hired him and his team to install new pavers, remove the old landscaping, and add a few palm trees. The paver layout was a bit more detailed, with turf strips between the stones, and they executed it perfectly. The whole crew was careful, thorough, and clearly took pride in their work. Gabe was also quick to offer helpful design suggestions that fit the style we had in mind. The end result turned out even better than we expected.

This time I use Gabe and his team for a major project. We needed to replace large sections of sod plus mulch the entire yard. Once again he exceeded our expectations. Our yard looks better than the day we moved in. Whatever landscaping need you have, this is the company to call.

Gabe and the team came out quickly, assessed the issue and even started fixing things right then and there. Great communication and fair pricing would absolutely hire again! John Schamp2024-07-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gabe and his GB Grow team were great from the very beginning! Gabe took his time to provide an in person estimate and talk through several different layouts with multiple plant options. He provided an itemized quote within 48hrs that broke down all time and material costs involved. The pricing never changed throughout the entire project even when minor details were added. He held to the schedule we planned and completed the project on time. Gabe and his GB Grow team did a remarkable job! They provide a high level of service rooted in a foundation of integrity and work ethic. I will be using GB Grow again in the future, and highly recommend them to anyone seeking lawn or landscaping needs! Bobby Edgar2024-06-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Where do I start. I highly recommend Gabe and his guys! Gabe came out and gave me a break down of everything I would need and ideas of what we should do in our backyard. Honest and fair price! Everyone went above and beyond from beginning to end I can’t explain how awesome they were! Thank you for everything!! Pamela Lee2024-05-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gabe and his team are top notch. I reached to out to get a quote to have some large plants removed and the area replaced and it turned out beautifully. They went above and beyond and trimmed up the rest of my landscaping and added extra mulch. Everyone on his team was kind and very professional. Gabe was quick to respond to any inquiry and always kept me in the loop on status and timing. Thank you!! Blake Parritt2024-04-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

About Us
I’m Gabe Ruiz, the founder of GB Grow Lawn and Landscape. I’m a husband, father and a veteran of the United States Marine Corps.
After completing my military service I attended The University of Tampa to develop business skills and knowledge. With a strong foundation in leadership, discipline, and teamwork acquired during my time in the armed forces, I was eager to apply these qualities to the world of entrepreneurship.
Combining my military background with my entrepreneurial education, I set out to build a business that not only provided high-quality landscaping services but also reflected my values of integrity, hard work, and dedication to customer satisfaction.

The timeline for a landscaping project from consultation to completion can vary depending on the scope of the project, the size of the property, and other factors. However, here is a general idea of what to expect for a typical landscaping project timeline:
We offer a wide range of services at GB Grow. Some common landscaping services include:
The best time to do landscaping largely depends on the specific services you are interested in.
Fall (September to November) is a great time for planting trees, shrubs and cool-season annuals. The somewhat “cooler” temps provide optimal conditions for new plants to establish roots before the heat of the summer.
Spring (March to May) is another ideal time for planting in Tampa Bay, as the weather is mild and plants have the entire growing season ahead of them to establish and thrive.
Winter (December to February) in Tampa Bay is mild, making it a decent time for planting trees and shrubs. We typically have less rainfall which can make it easier to control watering and ensure plants are not overwatered. Winter also brings cooler temps and less stress to plants. It is a good time for pruning and general maintenance of your landscape.
Summer (June to August) in Tampa Bay can be hot and humid, making it a time for more maintenance. Most plants will do just fine in the Summer. However, some may require more water and maintenance. This is a good time for maintaining your landscape, such as weekly mowing services and weed control.
Sod installation can happen year-round in Florida due to the warm climate.
Yes absolutely! Incorporating existing elements into a new landscaping design can add character, interest, and value to your outdoor space.
