Electric Flash Cordyline pairs well with spirea and lavender. A camellia provides a pop of color along the stained cedar fence. A day lily (not yet blooming) will provide a long season of cream-colored flowers to keep the show going all summer long. The dark stain on the cedar fence highlights the bright colors.

This native meadow planted in the sunny front yard of a residential property provides low-maintenance aesthetic beauty with an ever-evolving natural landscape that changes from season to season providing a crucial habitat for a myriad of insects from bees and beetles to grasshoppers and butterflies, which in turn support many small animals and birds.

A 2.5 acre property in Lake Jackson, Texas was in need of a drought and flood tolerant garden. The front garden features Hummingbird Bush, Hamelia patens; Tropical Sage, Salvia coccinea; Experanza, Tecoma stans; and False Indigo, Amorpha fruticosa. Native trees add to the existing Floodplain trees on the property and include Live Oak, Quercus virginiana; DD Blanchard Southern Magnolia, Magnolia grandiflora; Mexican Oak Quercus Polymorpha; and Swamp Chestnut Oak, Quercus polymorpha.
