There is always hope in my garden!



The word esperanza means hope in Spanish, and how can you not be hopeful looking out the window on these beautiful plants. They seem to thrive in the heat here in south Texas. Esperanza is just one of the many examples of heat tolerant/drought tolerant plants that we carry here at the nursery. Don't let the long summer San Antonio days get you down. Take hope in the fact that every season brings something to be thankful for when you garden!

Hey Donna,
How easy is it to transplant the Esperanza?

Esperanza is a very easy transplant. If you are digging and moving an established plant, it's best to wait until fall, if you have to do it sooner, dig as much of the root ball as you can and replant treating the plant like a new planting. Use root stimulator and give good regular waterings. Good luck and happy planting.
