A vigorous, self-clinging evergreen vine with bold deep-green leaves veined in creamy white, prized for its superior cold hardiness compared to standard English ivy. It climbs walls, fences, and arbors with ease, or spreads as a dense, low-maintenance groundcover where nothing else will grow. It's a reliable pick for the shaded, root-filled spots under North Texas shade trees where turf struggles, and once established it handles our hot summers with minimal watering.
A fall-blooming evergreen shrub valued for its large, richly red flowers that put on a show for about six weeks each autumn when most of the garden has gone quiet. Its dark, glossy foliage stays attractive year-round, making it a strong choice for foundation plantings, informal hedges, or as a specimen near a patio or entry. Like other sasanqua camellias, it favors acidic, well-drained soil and benefits from afternoon shade in hotter climates to protect its blooms and foliage.
A striking upright, narrow evergreen shrub that fits beautifully into tight side yards, foundation beds, or as a vertical accent. Pink buds open in fall to semi-double white blooms with bright yellow stamens, standing out against glossy dark green foliage when little else is flowering. Its columnar, vase-shaped habit makes it a natural fit for privacy screens, narrow hedgerows, or espalier-style plantings where a wide shrub won't fit.
A compact butterfly bush prized for its soft, color-shifting blooms that open white and mature to purple, creating multi-toned flower spikes on the same plant. It flowers continuously from summer through fall on new wood, drawing butterflies and pollinators all season. With a tidy, mounded habit far smaller than traditional butterfly bushes, it fits neatly into borders, low hedges, and containers. Once established, it shrugs off North Texas heat and drought, adapting well to our clay soils with minimal care.
An upright, deer-resistant shrub that turns heads with its layered blooms: medium pink buds open to white flowers brushed with pink around a striking dark red center, fading to soft pink as they mature. It flowers heavily through summer, right through North Texas' hottest stretch, filling the garden with color when many other shrubs slow down. Its full, upright habit matures to hedge size, making it a natural fit for privacy screening or a standout specimen planting.
An upright, deer-resistant shrub that puts on a show of large, semi-double white blooms with a bold purple-red center, each flower spanning 3-4 inches. It flowers steadily from July through September, right through the peak of North Texas summer heat when many other shrubs stop performing. Dark green foliage backs the blooms nicely, and its dense, upright habit makes it a strong choice for privacy hedges or a flowering screen along a fence line.
An upright, bushy floribunda rose covered in deep yellow blooms that hold their color without fading, backed by dark green, glossy foliage that resists disease exceptionally well. Its full, rounded habit and larger size make it a strong choice for a flowering hedge, backdrop planting, or a bright focal point along a fence line. Full sun and steady moisture keep it blooming reliably through the heat of a North Texas summer.
A bushy, floribunda rose loaded with strong, dark red blooms that flower abundantly and repeatedly all season long. Excellent disease resistance keeps foliage clean with little spraying, and once established it holds up well to drought, a nice fit for North Texas summers. Its full, rounded form works well as a landscape focal point, in mixed borders, or in patio containers, drawing pollinators throughout the bloom season.
A compact, bushy floribunda rose smothered in vivid, fluorescent pink cupped blooms that keep coming from spring all the way through the first frost. It's a proven performer, backed by multiple national rose trial awards, with dark green foliage and strong drought tolerance once established, a real advantage through North Texas' hot, dry summers. Its dense, well-mannered size fits neatly into borders, mixed beds, or containers, and its steady bloom draws pollinators all season long.
A compact, rounded floribunda rose that packs a punch with bright orange-red blooms of 18-20 petals that hold their color without fading, from late spring through summer. Its standout disease resistance and dark green foliage keep it looking clean with minimal spraying, a real plus in North Texas' humid summers. Sized to fit tight spaces, it's a great choice for borders, mixed beds, or containers where a full-size rose bush would be too much.
