Texas Gardening: Suggestions for plants with large, interesting leaves ..., 0 by sugarfoot

And what I couldn't get in the title...leaves that take full sun. My hillside garden is really filling in this year but it is lacking in variety when it comes to foliage. There are lots of spikey things like red yucca, irises and daffodils, lots of small-leaved things like achillea blue mist, larkspur, verbena, etc. but the only things I have with large interesting leaves are a couple of cardoons, three artichokes and a few red chards. I'm looking for small shrubs or perennials that have larger leaves and preferably some color variations to fill in amongst the flowers. They have to take full sun and need to be deer resistant. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Linda
