Butterfly Garden

Support Local Butterflies!

Don’t forget to incorporate these native host plants for local butterflies! Shop Datura, Gray Goldenrod, Buttonbush, Liatris, Butterfly Gaura and more. These plants attract various butterflies such as, Skippers, Monarchs, Swallowtails, and more.

Help support Monarch butterflies by going native with your Milkweed this season and snag varieties including Asclepias incarnata, Asclepias tuberosa, and Asclepias perennis! Help offset the loss of monarch breeding habits and promote migration by planting native Milkweed.

Available in 4″ Containers and 1gal. (Call for recent availability)

Learn what natives to plant for moths here.

Bee & Pollinator Garden

Support Our Local Ecosystem!

Bees see differently than we do! They can see ultra-violet light which allows them to see patterns on flowers that make gathering nectar easier. These plants not only attract a variety of pollinators, but some also host specific butterflies and are of special value to native bees. Some of our favorites include Gregg’s Mistflower, Blanket Flower, Buttonbush, Mexican Hat, Black-Eyed Susan, Purple Coneflower, and so much more!

Check out more perennial plants here.

Sensory Garden

Create Your Own Sensory Garden!

Sensory gardens are great for those who want to be more in tune with their plants and a great way to get kids involved in the garden. A sensory garden can serve as a meditative and mindful space for gardeners. Include plants with pleasant feeling foliage or fragrance. As well as plants that are visually intriguing. Plants we recommend to get started include; lavender, oregano, pineapple sage, basil, lamb’s ear, velvet panicgrass, Gulf Coast muhly and more.

Check out more herbs here.

Hummingbird Garden

Make Your Garden a Hummingbird Pitstop

Curious about how to attract or support hummingbirds this season? The nursery is stocked with high nectar favorites perfect for migrating hummingbirds!

Flame Acanthus, Turk’s Cap, Salvia greggii, Standing Cypress, and Indian Pink are a few Texas native plants you can add to your garden this spring! Non-native options include Hamelia, Russellia, Bottlebrush, and more.

Watch our video on ‘How to Setup a Hummingbird Garden’ here.
