Native and drought-tolerant trees, shrubs and perennials installed to thrive.
Getting plants to thrive on a Dripping Springs property is different than planting in town. The limestone, shallow soil, and heat load out here in Belterra, Headwaters, and Caliterra demand native and drought-tolerant species installed right the first time. Corral Bros knows the Hill Country ground-we select plants that actually belong in your acreage, amend the soil to help them establish, and set you up with honest first-season care guidance so your new trees and shrubs make it through their critical year.
We handle everything from hole prep on that hard caliche to mulching and first watering. Whether you are planting shade trees around a ranchette, native shrubs along a driveway, or a mixed perennial bed, we figure out what will work in your specific patch of ground instead of guessing. That kind of care takes a little longer upfront but saves you money and frustration down the road.
Call us at (737) 404-9343 for a free on-site estimate. We are usually able to schedule one within 48 hours, and we will walk your property, talk through what you want, and show you exactly what we recommend for your soil and site.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your Dripping Springs property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and plant installation that holds up to Hays County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
Drought-tolerant natives and adapted plants survive Central Texas summers best: Texas sage, salvia, lantana, esperanza, agave, red yucca, yaupon holly and ornamental grasses. We choose the right plant for each spot's sun and soil so it thrives instead of struggling through July and August.
We install plants properly, with the right hole prep, soil amendment, mulch and a first-season care plan, which is what gives them the best chance to thrive. Ask us about plant warranty options when we quote your project so you know exactly what is covered.
Native cedars, live oaks, and escarpment cherries handle the limestone well. For shrubs, Texas privet, agarito, and fragrant sumac thrive. In perennials and grasses, we lean on inland sea oats, flame acanthus, blackfoot daisy, and autumn sage. Corral Bros plants what belongs here instead of fighting the ground.
We dig properly sized holes and amend with compost to help roots establish in that tight Hill Country caliche. The goal is breaking through the worst of the lime and giving plants loose soil to grow into. It makes a real difference in year-one survival rates on Dripping Springs acreage.
Cost depends on what you plant, how many specimens, and soil conditions on your site. We give free no-obligation on-site estimates so you see exactly what the work involves. Call (737) 404-9343 and we will schedule one within 48 hours.
We leave you with a watering and care guide for the first season. Most newly planted trees and shrubs need consistent moisture their first year to establish roots. We walk you through the basics so you know what to watch for and when to water.
Yes. We break through what we can, amend the hole, and choose species that tolerate limestone and tighter soil. Some Dripping Springs properties sit on rough caliche, and we have done this work many times. Expect honest talk about what is realistic on your specific lot.
A mix works fine if you choose plants that handle Hill Country heat and limestone. Natives are usually the safest bet and often the best looking for a Dripping Springs property. We will walk you through your options and show you what we think fits your land and style.
