Finally found a female Possumhaw Holly! Over 5 foot tall, so a bit expensive, but since I have a couple of male trees, I've been wanting one with the red berries...these already had tiny green berries, so that's how you know it's a female plant.Went to Boerne's Plant Sale at Herff Farm on Saturday. The Boerne chapter of NPSOT had a separate area just for Texas natives. Also picked up a couple of 4-inch pots of Hill Country Penstemons endemic to Texas, red flowers. And a couple of 4-inch pots full of little Copper Lilies. Yum! That sale I didn't know about until a few days before it happened! On May 28th, there will be the 2022 San Antonio Festival of Flowers, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Plant Swap part is 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. You can bring plants to exchange for tickets to get other plants. Google for plants/seeds/bulb exchange rules. Near the Botanical Gardens, 1330 North New Braunsfels by Funston. They charge an entrance fee...think it's $7.
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White

Sadly, the San Antonio swap mentioned above has been cancelled. Just can't win for losing. The lady in charge passed away and nobody else can do it.
