Healthy Shrubs Provide Shade, Prevent Erosion, and Add Instant Beauty to Your Outdoor Space
Transformative power of shrubs? Dramatic much? Maybe, but it's true! Shrubs are the underdogs of the plant world. Everyone's out there talking about trees and flowers while shrubs are quietly keeping it all together in your yard.
Trees and flowers are pretty powerful, too, but let's talk about shrubs. You have an abundance of choices for North Texas native and well-adapted shrubs, including the intriguingly named Bonanza Gold Barberry and Mexican Fire Hummingbird Bush. No matter your landscaping goals and preferences, there's a shrub variety to meet your needs at Shades of Green Nursery + Landscape.
We're known in Celina, Texas, for drought-tolerant landscaping solutions, including North Texas native perennials, trees, bushes, and shrubs. We grow and tend to them ourselves, so we know they're healthy and ready to thrive in the clay soil and dry climate, helping you reduce your water usage and maintenance tasks. Stop by our garden center and talk to our knowledgeable staff about what type of shrubs might be best for you given your available shade and sunlight, aesthetic preferences, and outdoor lifestyle.
Take a look at our shrub inventory, then contact us for directions to our garden center in Celina.
