Texas Lilac Vitex information. More Texas Lilac information.

When I first read about “Texas Lilac,” I was intrigued and eager to add it to my yard. I checked Lowe’s numerous times but never found one. I asked questions of acquaintances  in the adjacent RV Park (permanent residents with large landscaped lots), hoping to find someone who could give me a slip or volunteer plant. I resorted to ordering one via the Internet, from Nature Hills (in Omaha, Nebraska).

It is 2:00 PM and my inclination is to rush outdoors and prepare to plant the Texas Lilac. However, it is much too hot and I’ll postpone the project.

Postscript, Sept. 16, 2016: Until I receive another extremely large container (free from the farm store), I’ll test this location. Will it get enough sunshine here? FYI: The Texas Lilac is in its original nursery container sitting inside the decorative planter.
