    Do you want trees that produce fruit or nuts? Or seed pods? Or ones whose leaves turn pretty colors in autumn?

    Pecans!

    ''Central Texas'' is a big area and a lot depends on your soil. Before you spend any money, check with your nearest state ag station. They will test your soil and give you all the advice you need for your area. Also visit local garden centers without buying anything at first. You need to be concerned with local rainfall stats as well as soil type.

    How far apart will depend on the tree species. Allow at least 20' between even the shortest ones.

I've recently purchased a fabulous drum lamp shade. I'd like to turn it into a hanging hardwired lighting fixture to hang from my ceiling. Is there a special kit to do this? I cannot afford to just buy a drum shade fixture already made. They are rather pricey (for our budget). Thanks!
