Wise Hands started in 2019 with the idea that unique, intelligently designed, and ecologically friendly landscapes need regular care by people who know plants. We now offer one-of-a-kind landscape designs using Florida native plants, installation services, restoration work and invasive plant control, and Pinellas County public lands tree planting.
Rooted in natural landscapes, our maintenance services include weeding; pruning for health, vigor and aesthetics; and small plantings. We also operate a sister company, Wise Hands Native Nursery, which focuses on growing rare native plants for wholesale buyers. We nourish truly beautiful and unique landscapes with the expertise they need to thrive. Our mission is to create and maintain natural landscapes, Florida native plantings, and wildlife gardens and to help grow a movement toward a synergy between the human and natural environments for the benefit of both.
As Florida’s natural resources continue to be developed, Wise Hands’ mission becomes ever more critical. As we lose these natural spaces, they are likely lost forever, and we wholeheartedly support wildlands conservation. Alongside this challenge, urban areas and neighborhoods have the opportunity to not only be less taxing on local ecosystems, but to actually provide wildlife habitat, water purification, pollinator support, and so much more.
Owners Stefan and Malory Babjak, along with their talented crew, can help make your space a place you love to be in and observe for all the life there.

Native Landscape Design and Installation
We begin with a personalized design consultation to walk your property, assess site conditions, and understand your goals. This step allows us to envision what’s possible and tailor a plan to your needs. After the consultation, we’ll provide a quote for your custom landscape design. Once approved, we’ll create the design, present it to you for review, and make any necessary revisions. From there, we’ll provide a detailed quote for installation and ongoing maintenance. Our team handles every step of the installation process—from removal to completion—ensuring your new native landscape is seamlessly brought to life.
Native Landscape Maintenance
Our experienced team specializes in caring for beautiful native landscapes. Maintenance services include: assessing plant health, precise weeding, pruning for optimal growth and aesthetics, removing debris, applying mulch, and handling small plantings. We’re dedicated to keeping your yard thriving and vibrant year-round.
Environmental Services
We’re driven by a passion for restoring and enhancing natural spaces. From invasive plant removal and natural area management to municipal tree plantings and full-scale landscaping, our team delivers sustainable solutions that rejuvenate and protect the environment.
Consultation and Plant Identification
Our one-hour consultation is perfect for those who don’t need a full design but want to make impactful changes—like adding garden beds, adjusting bed lines, or incorporating more than just a few plants. During the session, we’ll walk your property, identify plants and trees (determining if they’re native, Florida-friendly, or invasive), and offer practical solutions to your landscape challenges. Afterward, you’ll receive a detailed emailed report with tailored recommendations, plant suggestions, and actionable next steps to bring your vision to life. It’s a straightforward, expert-guided approach to help you refresh and enhance your outdoor space.
Wild Lands Management & Habitat Restoration
Our process starts with a design consultation to walk the property, identify your site conditions, listen to your goals and get a sense of what we could create for you. We will quote your landscape design based on the consultation, create the design, present it to you, make revisions, and then quote the install and maintenance.
