with you being in Texas and how freakin' hot it gets there i guess you'll have to take into consideration what types of plants, grass and trees you could grow in that type of heat? i would look into Allyn Haynes "The Lawn Care Nut" for warm season type grasses. he's got plenty of videos for you there. as far as landscaping plants, bushes and trees check out Laura from the "Garden Answer"
