Welcome to the Floresflowers
store - serving you on the web for more than two years!
Our plants are not like those
found at the big box stores or chain nurseries. Those merchants usually
stock only the top 10 sellers in each category (trees, shrubs, vines, etc.)
And, regrettably, much of their inventory consists of short-lived trees,
disease-prone shrubs, slug-and-snail-bait bedding plants and fruit trees
that will never produce a crop in our zone. Many of the species on
the list of Plants
to Avoid can be found in their displays. While those stores offer
large quantities and low prices, they also sell many doomed plants, guaranteed
to fail without expensive and time-consuming intervention.
We, however, offer small
quantities of extraordinary plants, most are uncommon, many are rare.
But all will live in our zone, if given the appropriate conditions.
Horticultural happiness comes when one selects the right plant for the
right site.
The items below represent
a tiny fraction of the more than 2500 species we can grow in San Antonio
and Austin. The multi-page Recommended
Plants though extensive, is still incomplete.
Check back often, we plan
to add more new plants throughout the year. Some of these plants
are available in very small quantites, please order early to avoid disappointment. |
