The
following is a list of plants that we try to keep in stock. This list
includes only those plants that we consider to be natives of Texas, Oklahoma,
or nearby regions such as Mexico. The list DOES NOT include the many imported
or exotic plants that we also sell. If you are looking for hard to find
non-native species, please call (940) 696-3082 or contact
us by e-mail. We do not intend this as a mail order list. We understand
the problems associated with shipping live plants but will try to accomodate
your needs if no other viable option is found. We have no problem with
shipping seeds, bulbs, or tubers as these items can withstand the rigors
of being handled by postal and freight companies. However, we are not
a seed company (per say) but will do our best to accomodate you. Since
space and time do not allow us to incude pricing, size, or current availability
we recomend that you contact us for up-to-date information. We greatly
appreciate your patience in these matters. Because our state covers such
a wide range of habitats and territory we use the following key to describe
the general provenance of these plants:
| I = Indigenous to North Central Texas (reference
to) Flora of North Central Texas (Shinner and Mahler) 1999 |
| E = East Texas |
| W = West Texas |
| S = South Texas |
| C = Central Texas |
| O = Oklahoma |
| M = Mexico |
This
list is obviously intended for those who live in North Central Texas and
South Central Oklahoma. These plant species have proven more or less to
adapt to our area. However it should be noted that plants taken outside
their normal range or preferred habitat may suffer due to extreme weather
or other limiting factors. This list is by no means all inclusive as experimentation
by amateurs, professionals, and ourselves will continue.
