Description: Residential landscape company since 1982 providing both design and installation services. We install naturalistic plantings, butterfly and hummingbird gardens, traditional plantings, stone and brick patios, and landscape drainage. Mike and Patsy Anderson (daughter of the late Lynn Lowrey, whose name is synonymous with Texas native plants) started the one acre nursery in 1982. Because their main focus is residential landscaping, the retail nursery is open certain days or by chance or appointment. Interesting plants you might see are : a variety of perennials, shade trees, small trees such as Parsley Hawthorne, Red Buckeye, Wax Myrtle, Silverbell, Wild Olive, Possum Haw Holly. Also shade loving plants: gingers, toadlilies, ferns.
