What Artistree does

ArtisTree Landscape Maintenance & Design is a Southwest Florida landscape services company founded in 1990 in Venice, Florida, specializing in planned community/HOA maintenance and custom landscape design and installation. The company serves a four-county region (Sarasota, Manatee, Charlotte, and South Hillsborough, with some presence in Lee County), targeting home and condominium associations, Community Development Districts (CDDs), property managers, HOA boards, luxury home builders (including Anchor Builders, Lee Wetherington Homes, and John Cannon Homes), and individual homeowners. Service offerings include full-service landscape maintenance (mowing, weeding, fertilization, pruning, irrigation management, pest control, seasonal color), custom landscape design and installation, tree services delivered by certified arborists, and certified low-voltage landscape lighting. Internal operations are supported by a proprietary A.R.T. (ArtisTree Request Tracker) work order management system that organizes and documents maintenance requests across the HOA client base.

The business operates on a mixed revenue model: recurring subscription-style maintenance contracts with HOAs and CDDs provide a stable revenue base, while one-time project-based design and installation work for luxury builders and individual homeowners contributes professional-services revenue. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company is sales-led, with account executives managing relationships with property managers and HOA boards, supplemented by direct homeowner outreach, a website with service-ticket functionality, content marketing (Plantopinions blog, Houzz portfolio, YouTube, Facebook), and annual Parade of Homes participation as a luxury builder subcontractor.

ArtisTree employs 101–250 people, including degreed landscape designers, certified arborists, Florida Certified Horticulture Professionals, LEED Green Associates, and Certified Pest Control Operators, and holds Best Management Practices (BMP) and Florida Green Industry certifications. In 2023, the company was acquired by Tampa-based Sunrise Landscape, one of Florida's leading commercial landscape operators; ArtisTree continues to operate under its own brand and local leadership, with co-founders Joe Gonzalez and Frank Fistner still involved. The company is consistently recognized in regional and industry rankings, including Sarasota Magazine's Best Landscaper, Sarasota Herald-Tribune Readers' Choice, SRQ Magazine Best Of, Landscape Management Magazine Top 150, Business Observer Top 50 Contractors, and the National Association of Landscape Professionals Safety Awards.
