Welcome
to Galveston Gardening...
I’m Don Wilkerson, recent retiree from Texas A&M University's Department of Horticultural Sciences - where for 28 years I served as a Professor and Extension Specialist in the area of Ornamental Horticulture

Today I am the "energy" behind Galveston Gardening. GG is a NEW effort designed to provide landscape gardening information for Galveston and the Texas Upper Gulf Coast. It will be a great forum to share info, post events and get tips and suggestions on how to deal with a wide range of gardening problems. OR share success stories with interested friends.

Our goal is to provide information on landscape gardening topics, events and activities for the Texas Upper Gulf Coast area. AND - we'll bring it with a HEALTHY SENSE OF HUMOR and FUN!!! Because after all - that's what coastal living is about...

Thanks for stopping by and we hope you’ll share this information with friends and fellow gardeners

GG Tree Resource Page:
Following the devastating effects of Hurricane Ike and two winters in a row with below freezing temperatures, we have a lot of work ahead to "re-green" Galveston and the Texas Upper Gulf Coast area.

The GG Tree Resource Page provides a wide range of information on citrus trees, palm trees and shade trees. We also provide links to community-wide programs and activities focusing on planting trees on public right of ways. We hope you'll find this information useful and also encourage you to use the GG Forum Page to ask questions and share info with friends and fellow gardenenrs.
