Chaya is not reliably hardy in Austin, Texas but it's beautiful leaves add interest to the summer garden and the small blossoms have a certain charm

tua tuaTua Tua is an invasive plant in tropical areas but won't survive the Texas winter, What a color source during our hot, dry summer.  It seemed to thrive on our 100+ temperatures!
