Pet of the Week

Pet of the Week

How about those ears? You can’t sneak up on this guy. Luka is just a youngster and he’s busy learning new things. He’s a smart guy who has learned sit in no time. He doesn’t mind practicing his leash skills as long as he can get together with his pals for a run or a dip in the pool afterward. He’s an energetic, squirmy guy who is happy to see everyone. Luka is a hound mix, 11 months old and weighs 36 pounds. If you are interested in Luka or any other dog, fill out a WAG adoption application at www.wimberleywagrescue.org or call 512-847-3200. 06/23/2022 12:00 AM

Thryallis

One of the easiest plants I have growing in my yard is Thryallis, (Galphimia glauca). Thryallis is a small shrub that grows 5 feet to 9 feet tall. It is a hardy, evergreen shrub that is excellent for its low maintenance and beautiful yellow flowers almost year round. Deer do not eat it. It grows in full sun or limited shade. Very drought resistant. Grows easily from seeds or cuttings. In fact, mine have spread too easily but I just let them keep growing. (I have many small plants if you would like to have one or more. Just call me and come by: 512-847-8774.) 06/23/2022 12:00 AM
