Round Rock Texas78681 Historic Home and Building Gardens

Round Rock has the type of climate that allows for lush gardens on historic home lots. There may be outdoor pavilions, perhaps even with a fireplace, butterfly garden, greenhouse, outdoor sitting areas and extensively landscaped with antique roses and other plantings. Round Rock is the place to have white picket fences adorned with blooming roses just spilling over the fence! How lovely! There are many varieties of roses and other plants that grow well and nearby quarries for amazing hardscapes like stone walkways and borders. Heirloom roses seem to go exceptionally well with historic homes especially combined with trellises, archways and a covered pavillion with a fireplace. Arbor and white picket fence BLISS!
