The Front Yard

05/29/2026

It’s time for that first weekend in June, that’s right, it’s time for the 2026 “90 on 90 Yard Sale”!!!

It’s the largest yard sale that we’ve ever seen because it runs straight down Hwy 90 for 90 miles, for 2 whole days! It runs from Sealy and goes all the way to Sequin, but you gotta stay on Hwy 90 all the way to catch all the yard sales.

On Friday & Saturday, June 5th & 6th, The Front Yard will be active participants in the 2026 “90 on 90 Yard Sale Weekend”, and we will be open some special hours too. For those early bird shoppers, we will open especially for you at 8:30 a.m. and will stay open until 5:30 p.m., for both days. So, please make plans to stop on by to pick up some beautiful, colorful plants for your yard or patio, okay.

Oh, yeah, there is a catch: if you do stop by on that Friday and/or Saturday, and you do make a purchase, THE FINAL COST ON YOUR RECEIPT WILL BE DISCOUNTED A WHOPPING 25%!!!

You heard that right! 25 per cent off your entire purchase! That’s so radical, but if there is something you’ve been wanting…now is the time to come and get it!

Let’s have some fun with the 2026 “90 on 90 Yard Sale” and let’s hit the road! It’s time for an adventure, so who’s up for it? Grab your shades, put on a hat, fill up your water bottle, get some gas in the car, and let’s ride! We sure do hope to see you all out here at TFY! Honk if you drive by and we’ll give you a wave!

Happy Friday, everyone! We sure do hope your day is going great and that you've got a smile on your face. If that's not the case, then come on out to The Front Yard on Hwy 90 and let the flowers soothe your weary soul. Let us show you a few of our newest arrivals.

Some Ice Plants have arrived, in both solid green and variegated varieties, and they are all flowering at this time. They are a compact plant known for its bright golden chartreuse foliage! It is drought and heat resistant as well, it likes full sun, and a moist, well-drained soil.

There is a whole flat of small Dessert Rose plants that have come in too. That is one of our popular requests and we are always happy to present them to our customers.

We have one large combo basket of mixed plants along with 2 smaller combos, as well. These are perfect and ready to be set into a larger pot for your viewing pleasure! So many come out and buy individual plants to build up a nice full pot, but these 3 pots are here, with a mix of plants, and ready to adorn a larger pot.

Last, but not least today, is to tell you that we have Hummingbird Falls Salvia in again and it is so beautiful, with its dark purple flowers and vibrant green leaves. Come out to see these beauties. The sunshine is beckoning...

Being thankful for the copious amounts of rain we did receive last night is what is on our minds this morning out here at The Front Yard. The rain gauge out in the middle of the yard showed about 1.5 inches this morning, but with the morning showers, it will register a bit more by this afternoon. Thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers and sending some relief.

Folks have been out looking for some Mexican Heather, which has small purple flowers, but did you know there is a Mexican Heather with white flowers? Yes, there are about 6 pots of Mexican Heather with the white flowers out on the tables right now. They won't last long...

We also wanted to show you all the Purslane plants with the Double Flowers. They look like little pom-poms. With the rain, they are standing straight up, and the flowers are so colorful, especially the dual-colored ones.

We'll be back in the 90's soon enough, so once we get dried out a little, you all come on down to The Front Yard and take a look at some of the prettiest plants around!

05/23/2026

The Front Yard will be CLOSED on Monday, May 25th, to honor our fallen heroes on Memorial Day, and to allow our staff to spend some fun time with their families before the long, hot summer sets in!

We will resume our normal business hours of 10:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, May 26th. We sure do hope to see you all soon. We wish everyone a safe holiday weekend. God bless America!

This flower blew me away this morning! This is a Cajun Hibiscus, and her name is Bodacious Burgundy. She is the only Cajun to produce a flower today, so she has center stage!

With the sun shining bright today out here on Hwy 90, the color just pops! Everything is so gorgeous and so ready to get taken out of the plain black plastic pots they come in, and they just want to grace your space!

There is literally a sea of Portulaca, and did we tell you that they love full sun!

The Rusty Red Sweet Potato Vine is flowering, and people always ask if they flower, so now we all know that they do! They sure do look great right next to their chartreuse cousins.

Okay, and those mini Vincas...you have just got to come in and see if they can fill a gap or hole in your bedding garden, and they also look great in pots on the porch. They, too, enjoy full sun, as well. Come on out to the "sea of color" and pick you out one or two plants to take home, free them from the black plastic pots, and sit back and enjoy! God is so good and we thank Him for the rain showers on us this week. Amen!

Now, you know more than just those Purslane Hanging Baskets came in that delivery yesterday, right! Right on!

There are:

-Pentas-in many colors such as Pink, Violet, White, and Lipstick.
-Vincas-several different kinds such as a ruffled petal Vinca, double flowering Vinca, and now, we even have the miniature Vincas that are just adorable.
-Lime Green Sweet Potato Vine
-Lantanas in gallon pots with names like Luscious Grape, Lucious Citrus Blend and Lucious Berry Blend.
-Jasmine-both Grand Duke and Sambal varieties.
-Portulaca plants in many colors.
-Zinnias-super zinnias to be exact!

You just have to come out to see them all, because they are all so colorful and gorgeous! The last photo is a comparison in the sizes of leaves and flowers of the double flowering Vinca compared to the Mini Vincas! Quite a difference there and it will be great to see in your flower bed or in your potted plant collection.

In between rain showers today, a delivery truck stopped by to drop off some more colorful bedding plants and hanging baskets. Wow!

Just take a look at these gorgeous Purslane Hanging Baskets! There is a variety in each pot, plus every cutting that it sheds will be a whole new plant, too.

We invite you to come out and take a look. The Front Yard is located out on W Hwy 90, just between Weimar and the Oak Grove Veterinarian Clinic. Slow down on your approach and put your turn signal on to let the car behind you know that you're going to turn in. We sure do hope to see you all soon.

The owners and staff out here at The Front Yard want to wish a Happy Mother's Day to all it pertains to, too many to name, but to grace a Mother with love and respect is surely a way to Heaven.

So many were happy with their Customer Appreciation Canvas Bag too, and we were so happy to see their smiles, too. Happy Mother's Day to all!

Well, the Mystic White Salvia and the Black & Bloom Salvia just vanished overnight! The Weimar Garden Club - Weimar, TX and their recent Plant Sale might have helped spur the sale of these great pollinators, as they were discussed and the source divulged. Needless to say, they went to a great garden and will flourish, of that there is no doubt. Just another example of how "word of mouth" helps to spread some good news.

The last of the Combo Bowls is on the table now, as all large and medium bowls have sold. The small combos are just as beautiful and elegant, so come on in and get you one, okay. Business has been steady today and everyone loves getting to select an imprinted canvas bag as well, as we show our appreciation for their ongoing support.

Also, we want you all to know that some Grand Duke and Sambac Jasmine has come in and they are both ready to bloom! Come on in, we are open until 5:30 on Saturday.
