Southern Botanical, a North Texas landscape firms, has officially expanded into Fort Worth with the opening of a new branch that will support continued company growth and enhance service capabilities across the region.
Founded in 1989, Southern Botanical began when founder and CEO Jason Craven started mowing lawns at age 12 to earn money for a bicycle. What started as a neighborhood lawn service has since grown into a company of more than 300 team members, known for setting “The Green Standard” in landscape excellence throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area, according to the company.
“This new location isn’t just a building, it’s a symbol of our growth, our investment in this region and our commitment to better serve the Fort Worth community,” said Tommy Silvers, vice president of operations at Southern Botanical. “We already have strong relationships here, and this expansion allows us to provide faster response times, more personalized service and even greater attention to detail.”
The new Fort Worth branch will focus on commercial landscape maintenance, irrigation and enhancement services, as well as tree care services for both commercial and residential clients. Southern Botanical stated this strategic move supports the company’s expanding commercial and tree care divisions, reinforcing the company’s goal to deliver quality, sustainability and craftsmanship.
In addition to expanding its service area, Southern Botanical’s Fort Worth branch will create new career opportunities ranging from landscape crew members, arborists and tree climbers to branch administrators and operations staff.
“Southern Botanical was founded on a simple principle: deliver the highest level of care, craftsmanship and service in the landscape industry,” Silvers said. “That commitment has earned us a great reputation in Dallas — and now we’re planting deeper roots in Fort Worth.”
The company will celebrate its Fort Worth expansion with a ribbon-cutting ceremony hosted by the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce on Nov. 13, 2025, attended by company leaders, employees and community partners.
“Fort Worth, we are excited to grow with you,” Silvers said. “We’re here not just to do business, but to be a true partner in making this city greener, more beautiful and more sustainable.”
