Texas Superstars ...

 
What it takes to be a Superstar

It isn't easy to become a Superstar!  Only the toughest, most reliable and best-looking plants make the cut.  Every plant earning the Texas Superstar designation undergoes several years of extensive field trials by Texas A&M University's Agriculture Program.  They must be proven to be super-performing plants under Texas growing conditions.  During the field trials, plants receive minimal soil preparation, minimal water and no pesticides.  What does that mean for the average homeowner?  It means landscape success with beautiful, proven, Texas-tough plants.  Visit www.TexasSuperstar.com for additional details about these amazing superstars!
