The Greer Farm has a unique retail nursery. We do not
normally stock large numbers of plants and trees nor do we
deal in the normal annual plants you can buy at discount
stores. We have planted a diverse selection of unique plants,
many native to Texas, that give a different balance, texture
and color scheme to your garden.
Our display gardens let you see our plants in a natural
environment. We can work with you to find the right plants
for your home. Please see the
photo album for examples of the hundreds
of different plants to which we have access.
Winter Specials
All of these trees and shrubs are in plastic tubs and ready
to plant. Prices are for pick-up at the farm. Delivery maybe
me available at extra cost. We accumulate orders until we
have a truck load from our supplier, so availability is not
at the time of order. Being pot raised, these can be planted
at any time, but best transported before they leaf out in the
spring.
We can offer a discount on larger orders.

Crape Myrtles
The state shrub of Texas. A summer classic needed in every
landscape.
No shrub-tree in Texas can beat the non-stop color in the
summer of a mature crape myrtle. They need some care to
establish the first year, but after that are heat and drought
hardy and can easily stand the long hot Texas summer. These
plants are pot grown and can be planted anytime.
