What can I grow here in North Texas after the temperature gets above 90 degrees? I got a few jalapeños last year, but that is about it.

What kind of sun / shade / space do you have?
How much do you want to grow?
How much time do you have to spend?

Give a few more details so can better help.

Thanks!
