💜Texas Mountain Laurel is a gorgeous native tree that grows very well in Houston and the rest of Texas. 

Purple blooms are attractive to pollinators and smell like grape soda!🍇

Angela Judd on Instagram: "Growing Texas Mountain Laurel? Here’s what you need to know: 

1. Gets these beautiful blooms each spring - smell like grape punch
2. Drought-tolerant and tough plant 
3. Slow-growing small multitrunked tree
4. You might see genista caterpillars - hand pick, leave them for the birds or if the infestation is severe and you want to treat, treat Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), a bacterial insecticide that only kills the caterpillars.
