Smooth Hydrangea
A native to eastern Oklahoma. With large white blooms all summer long, it’s hard to believe this species is more tolerant of heat, sun, and drought than its cousin the Bigleaf hydrangea.
American Beautyberry
A showstopper in all four seasons. Bright purple berries mature in late summer and become a focal point when the leaves fall off during autumn. Beautyberry can be trained or left to its whimsical nature.
Common Rose Mallow
A great choice for areas that tend to hold moisture. This hardy hibiscus boasts large flowers that attract hummingbirds and wow dinner guests.
Indian Blanket Flower
Oklahoma’s state wildflower is a must-have for any native plant enthusiast. Bright red blooms are a favorite of pollinators and stand out after the rest of the garden has given in to the summer heat.
