Gardens of Texas: Growing with Resilience
With the increasing weather extremes Texas is experiencing — heat waves to deep freezes and droughts to floods — how should gardeners adapt? Drawing from the visionary landscapes in her new book, Gardens of Texas, Pam Penick shares how resilient gardeners are embracing change, shifting their plant palette, nurturing wildlife, and finding deeper joy in the process. Discover practical strategies for creating gardens that weather the storms and grow stronger — and how cultivating resilience in your landscape can also cultivate it in yourself.
