🌱 Does the thought of spring bring you visions of beautiful blooms and new beginnings? You’re not alone! The secret? Thinking ahead for that picture-perfect Texas moment. Here’s why fall is the perfect time to get your native plants (including wildflowers, trees, shrubs, and groundcovers) in the ground:

1️⃣ Root Growth: Cooler weather reduces stress on your plants, giving them several months to establish strong, deep root systems before the heat returns. Even our tough native plants appreciate the extra time to get a head start for spring.

2️⃣ Soil & Moisture: Fall means more rain and better moisture retention. With warmer soil from summer, but more stable temps, your plants will have ideal conditions to grow and flourish with less effort on your part.

💬 What’s on your wish list? Our gardeners and experts will be ready to answer questions and help you make the most of your fall planting.

🌟 Members get early access this weekend (Sept. 27-29)! Not a member? Join today or mark your calendar for the public sale starting Oct. 4.
