Houston's Urban Forest

Houston's urban forest and its health help control pollution. Controlling invasive plants and rein-troducing native plantings contributes to the forest's health and esthetic appeal of the park for all users. After removing invasive plants the natural beauty of the understory is restored with native Texas grasses, wildflowers and other plants. Native plants have more ability to thrive as a result of this work, thereby increasing the health of the forest, and quality of life for all Houstonians.
