Great Flowering Trees for Austin!

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The next best time is today!


Texas Mountain Laurel

Wow, what a wonderful aroma! These brilliant purple flowering shrubs are the messengers of spring when they bloom in mid February. They're also extremely durable, and are able to handle heat and droughts that bring other native plants to their knees.


Texas Redbud

These showy pink flowers are breathtaking to behold, and the Texas Redbud is a drought tolerant variety!


Desert Willow

A drought-resistant favorite.


Crepe Myrtle

So pretty! These plants love the Texas heat and Sun.


Magnolia

These trees can grow more than fifty feet tall! Some varieties make a great spruce up for a garden, while some can stand as the proud centerpiece to a yard! The massive white flowers make May and June a wonderful time.

If you've ever wanted any, or all, of these trees in your yard - what better time than the present?
