What are the best perennials for Texas?

JennD asked:


I live in TX and I can’t go by what the plant tag says for whether they will survive or not. If I buy them that say “full sun” they die in full sun because it’s too hot. They actually do really well in the shade. My entire front yard is pretty much full sun. I’m not a fan of cactus or anything ugly. Any suggestions on something I can plant that I will not have to replant every year?

    Try going to hgtv.com. They have all the cable gardening & landscape shows on there. Gardening by the yard is very good. They can tell you what will work best for the conditions in your yard. They also have plans for landscaping, where to plant what, what looks best with what, etc. And how to care for it when it’s planted.
