Welcome…
Our mission is to motivate people to make smart choices about their landscapes and gardens by spreading the word about EARTH-KIND® Roses and EARTH-KIND® Environmental Soil Management. We hope to enlighten the public by making the the latest scientifically sound, research based information from regional and national trial gardens available to all people.
What is EARTH-KIND®?
“EARTH-KIND®” is one of the most prestigious plant designations bestowed by the Texas AgriLife Extention Service. It is based on years of extensive field research conducted by Texas A&M horticultural experts. Only a few, very special cultivars (i.e. “varieties”) possess the extremely high levels of landscape performance coupled with the outstanding disease and insect tolerance/resistance that are required in order to receive this designation.
“Treat the earth well: it was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children.”
Native American proverb
