Cedar
Park, Texas is closed to Austin, Texas and has seen tremulous
growth in the last 10 years. Cedar Park is situated at the beginning
of the beautiful hill country of central Texas. Cedar Park offers a
excellent lifestyle for families with a feel of country living but still
only 10 minutes from Austin. For families recreation, Lake Travis is only 5
minutes away. Many families with children move to Cedar Park because of the
excellent rated school system.
The
best thing about living in central Texas, or the Cedar Park area is your
garden can have color all year around. Spring time starts in Cedar Park
around the middle of March where some fall planning can give you a beautiful
spring garden. Planting red poppies seeds and yellow daffodil bulb and iris
in the fall will give you some beautiful spring colors. For winter
color, pansies and violas bloom all winter and they are still beautiful in
the spring to add the extra punch. I use the yellow and purple colors so
they will go beautiful with the poppies seed and yellow daffodils and blue
irises. There are also many flowering trees like dogwoods, mountain laurel
(smells great too) and the peaches tree start blooming. Vines like carolina
jasmine is beautiful and planted close to a patio or the front door will
give you a wonderful sweet smell. Lady bank rose are thorn-less and offer a
perfusion of dainty yellow flowers, great to hide those ugly fences. Just
throwing some wildflower seeds in your garden beds can produces a beautiful
spring garden.
Summer
in Cedar Park produces beautiful flowers from April thru the 1st of July.
There are many natives plants or drought-tolerance plants that
produces blooms all summer. Flowers like lantana, daylilies, blackfoot
daisy, cosmos, hibiscus, mexican heather, roses, canna, salvia and ruellia
just to name a few. Many palm trees do very well in Cedar Park
and offers you that topical garden you always want. To keep color in your
garden many annuals do well in Cedar Park. Periwinkle is my favorite and
seems to take that hot afternoon heat with minimum watering. Cosmos
and zinnias are easy to grow and seem to do best with just planting from
seeds. In the shade garden, ferns, begonias, columbine and impatiens give you
the color you need.
