This Memorial Day weekend, in addition to indoor products like Water Sense-labeled toilets, shower heads and bathroom faucets, Texas homeowners and businesses can purchase Water Sense-labeled irrigation controllers and sprinklers tax-free. Some of those items that are tax-free include:
- Soaker hoses or drip irrigation hoses
- Mulch
- Compost
- Plants, trees and grasses also qualify, but it is important to choose the right plants adapted to the somewhat unforgiving soils and climate of San Antonio. Check out a list of recommended plants and trees that work great in Bexar County from the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension by CLICKING HERE.
For a full list of water conserving products that will be free of tax May 26-28, visit the Texas Comptroller's website.
