Tips for Texas Gardeners
Soil: Texas soil varies from clay to sandy. Add compost and organic matter for best results.
Water: Drought-tolerant plants recommended. Deep watering less frequently builds strong roots.
Heat: Provide afternoon shade for sensitive plants during peak summer heat.
Pests: Watch for fire ants, aphids, and grasshoppers. Use integrated pest management.
