Located in north Texas zone 8b. We are looking to actually do the landscaping but don’t know what plants would look best. I want to use Purple Heart and I wanted to do hostas and maybe a Boxwood or 2 but I heard that hostas don’t grow well in Texas? Can you give me some ideas on good easy plants that will make the front of the house look nice. Thank you!

I’m not familiar with the best plants for Texas but I am very familiar with hosta.
Yes, hosta can grow in Texas as long as they have some time below 45° for their required annual dormancy (needed for optimal growth).
However… they’ll need shade and extra water. The front of your house looks like a killing zone for hosta.
