    In this video, there are lots of Texas natives and well adaptive plants including: autumn sage, mealy blue sage, crossvine, whale’s tongue agave, wright’s skullcap, pink skullcap, Mexican mint marigold, white, Yarrow, Texas kidney wood, flame acanthus goldenball leadtree, desert willow, and redbud trees.
    I’m working on also creating my vegetable garden which will have Burpless cucumbers, Kentucky wonder pole beans, various herbs, potatoes, and kale

      Hello my friend! I hope you are well. That mealy blue sage will do you right and spreads fairly readily. Before you know it, you’ll have mounds and mounds of blue spires. Give it a trim if it gets too leggy. CTG did a very helpful segment on this:

    Hello from Central Texas, Zone 8a. My natives are sleepy heads, compared to yours! 😉 My Mealy Blue Sage is about 4” and my Autumn Sage’s are doing best at around 10” Like you mentioned, they are my favorites too for being reliable. 😊
    Thank you for sharing ! I am looking forward to seeing your garden grow again this year.

      Ms Granger!! Good to see your name pop up here! You’ll probably only find these at a small local nursery versus the big box stores. Think Grizzly’s in Nolanville or 93 Landscape in Temple. Sometimes they are labeled by their botanical name, salvia greggii. Best wishes on your sage hunt😊

    We drove from central Florida. Where did you order your Bluebonnet seeds. I literally googled Texas roadside flowers - I found a nice list 🙏🏼 your flowers are so beautiful.

    • @theplantninja-texasgardener
      @theplantninja-texasgardener  6 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks for dropping in my beautiful fellow gardener! Believe it or not Texas Department of Transportation sows all of those beautiful wildflowers annually. I typically order my wildflowers from here
      👉seedsource.com/native-texas-mix/. We don’t get as much rain as you do in Florida, and bluebonnets thrive in rocky soil. So ensure you sow in very well draining soil(think adding lots of gritty material). I’m learning a lot about native plants and so I found this for you as well.

This one isn’t in full sun very long during the day and may not get as large. I’m guessing it’ll max out at 3-4ft. Now that I say that I’m sure it’ll prove me wrong 😂
