Recent Visit To Austin

To prepare for a new landscaping project in downtown Austin I drove down to the Far South Nursery. The overcast and cold December day could not keep me from exploring plants that I was familiar and unfamiliar with. Making a list of plants that looked good in Fall/Winter was a valuable experience. It was also a real pleasure meeting and speaking with the owner/plantsman Henry Chalmers. He's super friendly and passionate about what he does.

I look forward to seeing a fully stocked nursery when I return in the spring.

I also walked around downtown Austin to get a sense of how plants are used in local front yards.
