In San Antonio, we enjoy the luxury of being able to garden almost all year. But we are most successful when we choose plants that appreciate the area's unique climate and soil conditions. Use Good to Grow to search for flowers, shrubs and trees that do well here. The database, compiled from weekly plant spotlights that ran in the S.A. Life section, provides a description of each plant along with its mature height and width, light requirements and special growing needs --plus a photo!
This area enjoys a broadly diverse plant palette, so there is always something dazzling in the landscape.
