Why Native Plants Make Landscaping Easier and Smarter
Using native plants in your Houston landscaping isn’t just a trend—it’s a smart, eco-friendly move. These plants are adapted to our unique Gulf Coast climate, meaning less watering, less maintenance, and better resistance to local pests.
Native plants also support local pollinators like bees and butterflies, which are vital to healthy ecosystems. And let’s not forget—they look amazing year-round with minimal effort.
Great Native Plants to Consider:
- Texas Lantana – Drought-tolerant and butterfly-friendly
- Gulf Coast Muhly Grass – Beautiful pink-purple plumes
- Black-Eyed Susan – Bright color and easy to grow
- Turk’s Cap – Shade-loving and great for hummingbirds
Adding a mix of these low-maintenance beauties can boost your curb appeal while helping your landscape thrive naturally.
