Shades of Green nursery in Frisco has the best selection of native plants I've seen in this area. As a bonus, because they're native to Texas, they require a lot less water which is perfect for the water restrictions Collin County residents now face. They also tend to be heat-loving and more disease- and pest-tolerant thus requiring little to no fertilizer and pesticide. In line with that philosophy, Shades of Green carries an extensive selection of organic products for the lawn and garden. It is an independent nursery so you get personal service. The employees have been quite helpful on offering care tips for the plants they sell. Shades of Green is located on Coit Road 2 miles north of 121 in Frisco.
