Seguin and Houston, although only 160 miles apart, represent different ecological environments. When selecting plants for Seguin, I need to be mindful of what is native or adapted here and not just assume that something that did well in Houston will thrive here.
One resource that is helpful for this research is the plant database maintained by the Native Plant Society of Texas.
Texas Lantana is one plant that does well in both places and I have a young one here. It has grown and flowered, even in our current drought.
In Houston, my Texas Lantana froze back every few years, but it always recovered.
