Plants around a Pine Tree

whyclef
13 years ago

I live in East Texas and have landscaped a round flower bed that encircles a Pine Tree. Unfortunately, I have had trouble getting anything to grow around it without a lot of daily watering in past years. Of course, it would look great if I could get something to grow around it. Any recommendations on plants to grow near Pine Trees? Is it possible?
