Leucophyllum langmaniae 'Rio Bravo'
This lovely semi-evergreen shrub boasts a beautifully dense, round shape that needs minimal pruning to maintain its charm. Its delightful foliage features a soft, velvety texture and is greener than most varieties of Texas Sage. Lavender-purple flowers bloom in abundance along the branches during spikes in humidity including before and after rain. This hardy plant thrives with deep yet infrequent watering in well-draining soil and is wonderfully tolerant of both extreme and reflected heat. It attracts many pollinators, especially bumblebees.

Spring Shipping:
Orders are shipped within 10-15 business days. We will email you if there are expected delays.
When you order plants from our nursery, you can expect them to arrive in the best possible condition. Our team carefully packs each order using sturdy, biodegradable packaging materials.
Your plants' appearance may vary depending on the season and their current growth stage. We may cut back the leafy growth of some plants to prepare them for shipment and transplanting.
5 Gallon and Up: Any plant purchased to ship over 5 Gallons will be shipped bare root. This means we will remove the plant from its original pot, remove the soil surrounding the roots, and wrap the roots with a biodegradable plastic bag. This reduces weight and the likelihood of damage during shipping.
Once your plants arrive, it is essential to plant them as soon as possible. This will help them rebound and thrive. If you cannot plant immediately, water regularly and keep the roots off heat-conducting surfaces.
Newly transplanted plants often require more water until their roots are well established. Plan to water them 1-3 times weekly for the first few months.
