Leucophyllum frutescens, Texas Sage
The silvery foliage of this drought tolerant shrub makes a stunning accent. Native to Texas and northern Mexico, it is adapted to desert conditions and grows best in full sun. It is slow growing and will reach a size from 3 to 8 feet around. It has lavender flowers that are usually produced when the rainy season begins. Consider planting Leucophyllum instead of Ligustrum or Nandina.
