In this Texas Nature Journal entry, we’re taking a close look at Rock Rose (Pavonia lasiopetala) — a drought-tolerant, low-maintenance Texas native shrub that thrives in heat, blooms for months, and adds a reliable splash of pink to the landscape.

You’ll learn:
• How Rock Rose grows in the wild and in Texas landscapes
• Blooming patterns and seasonal care tips
• Ideal planting locations and companion plants
• How to prune for shape and more flowers
• Propagation methods to keep it thriving for years

We’ll also talk about why it’s a favorite in San Antonio’s public landscapes — and how you can grow it successfully at home.
