Nelson's Water Gardens in Katy Texas, a place you need to plan on spending the day, acres of complete water gardens on display. They sell everything to make your own, plus everything you need to go in it and around it + much more, like out door art. Of course you can get you Koi and Gold fish here too, and lady bugs.
Streets in Katy "Proper" are lined with flowers, trees, due to our warm year-round climate, it seldom gets cold in Katy Texas, so we can luckily grow just about anything, featured here are flowering Bradford Pear Trees. Of course March in Katy Texas is one of our most glorious months, due to the azalea are in full bloom and they are everywhere you eyes can see and come in pinks, purples, whites + they are a beautiful evergreen shrub too, so when not in bloom they stay bright green year round...but it's when they bloom they are show-stoppers!

Liz Carter & Team Realty (I'm in the middle) stopped in front of these magnificent white azaleas in full bloom for a photo to put in the paper for our award by the Houston Business Journal. I have ranked every year for the last 13 years that the HBJ has been tracking production of the top agents in the greater Houston MLS, which includes Katy, Sugar Land, and the surrounding areas. There are 27,000 Realtors in the Multiple Listing Service and I have placed in the top 25 every year for number of homes sold and total dollar value. When we saw these beauties after the awards breakfast it seemed the perfect photo op! The Azaleas bloom in March-April every year. They have an azalea trail that you can take a guided tour of some of the older more exclusive homes and marvel at the beauty of these flowers that are common to our area. It's worth a trip here during that time of the year, or better still just more here and you can enjoy our sub-tropic type weather year round. The humidity is good for your complexion too.
