Attend a garden tour and talk by the Wildflower Center's director of horticulture Andrea DeLong-Amaya. Celebrate Texas Native Plant Week from Oct. 16-22 by promoting the health of Austin's ecosystems with drought-tolerant Texas plants.
Texas' indigenous plants typically need less water and maintenance, so return to your roots and reflect on the awareness week's slogan, "Proud Texans Plant Texas Natives." Visit the center's drought resource website to learn about hardy local plants and the Texas Native Plant Week website for more details on statewide activities.
