Lubbock Master Gardener Association has created information-filled listings of water-wise plants we recommend for our area. Eight of our lists cover grasses, ground covers, large shrubs/small trees, perennials, roses, shrubs, trees, and vines. Our list of Full Sun Annuals gives a description of each recommendation. These lists are not all-inclusive, but they are a great place to start to fill in the empty spots around your yard.
