Ornamental Cabbage and Kale are low-maintenance annuals ideal for filling your fall flowerbeds and container gardens!
#4: FALL TREES & SHRUBS
Did you know that Fall is the best time to plant trees and shrubs? Planting trees and shrubs now gives the roots more time to establish before our next Texas summer.
SUNSHINE LIGUSTRUM
Sunshine Ligustrum is an outstanding variety that produces dense foliage. As the plant matures, the foliage turns to a bright shade of gold. It grows best in full sunlight and makes for a wonderful and colorful addition to your landscape.
TEXAS SAGE
For an accent of purple blooms, try Desperado® Texas Sage! Desperado® Texas Sage is a drought-tolerant shrub full of lavender blooms and silvery gray-green foliage. It grows best in full sunlight and in well-draining areas.
AZALEAS
For yearly blooms, plant Azaleas in your landscape! This captivating, compact evergreen shrub is bathed in clusters of colorful blooms that will emerge all season. Did you know Azaleas are acid-loving plants? For your gardening success, use Calloway’s Premium Organic Pine Bark Mulch as an attractive top dressing after planting. Calloway’s Premium Organic Pine Bark Mulch is the ideal mulch for plants and shrubs that prefer an acidic environment.
