Home of the Texas A&M Aggies and Heisman winner Johnny Manziel, Bryan College Station is one of the best places to live anywhere to live in the US. With plenty of jobs, family friendly attractions as well as the fun of a Texas college city, Bryan College Station stands out. When landscaping your house in this part of the country, you need to take a few things into consideration, as the weather here is quite extreme and unpredictable. It can go from monsoon type weather to months of drought in the same year so you need plants that are hearty and can take a good deal of sunlight. Here are a few good examples of great plants that thrive in this area.

Blood Leaf Banana: This striking plant is known for its foliage, which is quite beautiful, and its ability to take an extreme amount of sunlight. Planted in singles or in groups, this plant makes great accent pieces to any home or garden. Be careful in small areas though as this plant makes leaves close to 10 inches and can dwarf small spaces. This one also makes a good potted plant as long as the area gets sun.

Yellow Bells: While these absolutely gorgeous flowers grow well in sunlight, they will need some afternoon shade during the hottest parts of the day. They grow quite high and will need some trimming but make great landscaping plants closer to the home where they will get shade.

Plumbago: These wonderful plants will grow into large bushes and will grow on a trellis if you have the patience, which pays off with the beautiful blue flowers it produces. Thriving in the hottest summers, this plant is nearly resistant to all diseases, conditions, and even deer. This perennial can be used nearly anywhere in a landscaping project.
