Little Gem southern magnolia, redbuds (especially the variety ‘Warren’s Red’), golden raintree and Lacey oak. Still smaller: tree-form crape myrtles, yaupon and possumhaw hollies, Texas mountain laurel and smoke trees. Note that crape myrtles and yaupon can be planted close to houses without fear of foundation damage.
