Winter doesn't have to be bland!
Days are growing shorter and the sun seems to hide behind the clouds more often than not. Add a pop of color to ward off those winter blues!!! Come see us and ask which cool-season gloom-killers are right for you! The photo above - clockwise, top left: Pink Stock, Pansies, Cyclamen, and Ornamental Kale.
Berries are for the birds!
Native plants support native wildlife and this is how our ecosystem works! Every winter our Yaupon Hollies are covered in berries to fatten up our songbirds in the winter. This longtime landscape staple is a drought-tolerant, deer-resistant, evergreen shrub that looks beautiful this time of year! Every home in Central Texas should have at least one. Oh! And, the leaves are the only native source of caffeine in Texas! Keep an eye out for local Yaupon tea companies! See store for available sizes and prices.
