Meet the Management Team

Bruce Turley
Davis Byrkit: General Manager
Davis started his native plant career working for a small gardening company that maintained native yards, getting hands-on experience with many of Florida’s native species. From there, he went on to Wilcox as a Nursery Specialist, gaining more exposure to the diversity of plants that Florida has to offer. He is now the General Manager, overseeing day to day operations and the growth of the nursery (no pun intended). He is also pursuing a Bachelor’s Degree in Biology with a focus on Ecology from USF.
