Congratulations to Shiloh and Jon of 104 Caladium for being recognized as the Castle Hills Yard of the Month!

Their landscape is a vibrant celebration of color, creativity, and tropical charm. The front yard welcomes visitors with bold, colorful planters, and as you walk through the front door, you're greeted by unique glow-in-the-dark Firefly Petunias.

The backyard is a true tropical oasis, featuring dozens of whimsical planters, eclectic garden art (including a disco ball!), and winding paths full of surprises. Stroll beneath a passion fruit-covered arbor to a peaceful koi pond, or wander through a lush fern alley leading to the pool. Along the way you'll discover fragrant plumeria, striking bird of paradise plants, an impressive bonsai tree, eye-catching rattail cactus, and countless other botanical treasures.

This one-of-a-kind landscape is truly a labor of love, requiring dedicated care and attention throughout the year. This garden is loving all the rain we've had this year! Congratulations, Shiloh and Jon, and thank you for sharing your incredible garden and inspiring the Castle Hills community!

Congratulations to the Alicea family at 217 Briarcliff on being recognized as the Castle Hills Yard of the Month!

After retiring, Roland and Ofelia have devoted countless hours to designing and transforming their large corner lot to both beautify their property and reduce water use. Roland recommends Zeon Zoysia grass from Milberger's and materials from Wholesale Landscaping on Redland Road.

No landscape architect or fancy software was needed—Roland simply used a garden hose to lay out the design for the rock beds! In the backyard, they incorporated drought-tolerant plants such as plumbago, purple heart, liriope (lily turf), and sago palms. The round rock bed covers a sunny area while conserving water.

A flagstone pathway lined with muhly grass hugs the side of the house, while more sago palms, a desert willow, and crape myrtles add beauty and structure throughout the landscape.

Thank you, Roland and Ofelia, for helping make Castle Hills a more beautiful and water-wise community!

Congratulations to the Morin Family at 103 Lochaven on earning Castle Hills Yard of the Month!

This yard is a beautiful example of how xeriscaping and traditional lawn can complement each other. Red yucca, prickly pear, agaves, and rosemary bushes are thoughtfully spaced along the xeriscape beds, giving each plant room to shine on its own. Pride of Barbados on each end of the lot are putting on quite a show right now.

A clever rock formation along the left side of the driveway does double duty as a landscape feature and keeps the shadow stone anchored in place over a slight dip in the terrain. Lots of great design thinking on display here!

Head around back and you'll find a pool retreat shaded by crape myrtles, with a mix of mulch and lily turf finishing things off beautifully.

If you haven't taken a drive by yet, it's well worth the trip. Well done, Morin family, you've earned bragging rights!

Congratulations to the Derman-Carmichael family at 220 Carolwood for being recognized as Castle Hills Yard of the Month!

Thank you for helping beautify our community with such a thoughtfully designed space. Featuring a blend of crushed granite, shadow stone, and mulch paired with drought-tolerant plants, this yard is not only low-maintenance but also a smart water-saving landscape.

Even more special, the backyard view—framed through large picture windows—creates the feeling of being outdoors while seated comfortably inside around a coffee table. From watching hummingbirds to enjoying the peaceful fountain and vibrant bougainvilleas, it’s a true oasis.

Well deserved!

Did you know that fertilizing trees during drought is not recommended, and ball moss, a non-parasitic air plant, poses no harm to your trees? This insight and more came from Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service Forester Elizabeth Nyawo's presentation on Common Tree Issues.
