Photos that I took about gardening and nature in my garden and across Texas. Visiting other gardens or public spaces can be inspiring, but it can also show which plants can handle the toughest conditions. Take a walk during different times of the year, and see what is growing and not growing. Look for all season interest plants, and not just “winter interest” or spring blooms. Some plants change foliage color due to the sun exposure and temperatures. Some plants revert back to the original "parent."
