We are a destination garden center and gift shop located in a beautiful pastoral setting between Canton and Tyler, Texas. We specialize in perennials, herbs, natives, hardy roses and cottage garden flowers. The 90 year old gift shop is filled with home decor, candles, books, garden art, fairy furniture and more.

GO NATIVE
Native plants are fast becoming popular for gardens because of their heat and drought tolerance. In the last couple of years the supply has finely begun to meet the demand for these garden treasures. We offer a wide selection of ornamental grasses, perennials and a few shrubs that work well in Central, North and East Texas. We encourage you to incorporate natives or their more compact hybridized versions into your gardens in order to conserve our natural resources.

PATIO TREES
Patio trees are fun to use as accent plants near the pool, on a patio or placed in a container in the garden. Hibiscus is the most common form of these small trained trees but many other plants are trained in this way also. We have Spicy jatropha with gorgeous red flowers, lantana in yellow or orange, five foot tall hibiscus in yellow and orange and an unusual variegated holly. Choose any of these plants for sunny garden areas.

TROPICALS
It is hard to beat tropical plants for the richness of color they provide in the summer landscape. These are the types of plants that pack the wow punch when the heat is on. Bougainvillea, Hibiscus, Mandevillea, Plumbago, Stomanthe and Strobilanthus are just a few of our favorites. They enjoy hot weather although many do require consistent moisture during the dry months. Because these plants are tropical they must be protected during the winter from freezing temperatures. We suggest placing them in a greenhouse, a sunny room or in the garage. Be sure to cut way back on watering during this time of lowered light.
