STILLWATER, Okla. – For a dozen years now, the Oklahoma Proven program has helped guide gardening enthusiasts toward plants, trees and shrubs that have been proven to grow well in Oklahoma’s diverse climate and soil types.

The selections for 2010 promise to provide gardeners with lots of color and texture, said David Hillock, Oklahoma State University Cooperative Extension consumer horticulturist.

“Oklahoma Proven is a program designed to help gardening enthusiasts select annuals, perennials, trees and shrubs that will grow well across the state,” Hillock said. “Each year we select a tree, shrub, perennial and annual that will help gardeners grow beautiful gardens and landscapes.”
