Beautiful. Someone gave me some seeds once and I tried but guess they only will grow in Texas.
Absolutely beautiful!!!
I wish I could just hop in the car and come over and see the wildflowers. Also I read your previous post about pet---oh you know. Most people think I am Lala cause I love that scent. I have soaps, oils, creams and anything I can come across. I am sure going looking for the plant. Probably will have to order it on line. I will be willing to bet no one in little old B'town will have it.

I will have to put Texas on my list of places to visit in the Spring. The flowers are stunning.

Oh my, these photos are beautiful. I've always wanted to visit during bluebonnet season, but haven't made it yet. Perhaps I'll add that to my bucket list! Thanks for your well wishes for my house hunting. Not an easy thing to do when you want to rent, rather than buy, but I'm believing for it. ♥
i wondered what those flowers by the road are....bluebonnets, huh? lovely!!!
thanks for sharing.
Texas is so pretty in springtime with these beautiful fields full of blue and orange wildflowers!

How beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
The husband and I went for a country drive last weekend and found all kinds oF people pulling over the side of the road to take pictures of our lovely bluebonnets!Pretty time of year for Texas!
Nola, I love the bluebonnets! So very, very lush and colorful. I wonder what the red flowers are that are intermingled with them - ? poppies perhaps. Thanks for stopping by and telling me about your cat! You're a good person for taking care of him!
Have a wonderful day, Nola!
Hugs, Beth
Nola, the bluebonnet fields are so pretty!
Do bluebonnets have a pretty odor? Is it true that Ladybird Johnson had a lot to do with having bluebonnets planted all over Texas (I think I remember reading that once)
love blue bonnets...and indian paint brushes are my favorite...might have to talk hubby in to taking me to Ennis this weekend...
So pretty! I've got to visit Texas!!

oh wow! that's so pretty to see! Here the county plants strips of flowers in the median strips down our by ways and high ways. It sure makes for a pleasant drive. Wish I could get poppies to grow the way they manage to do it. :)
Gail they do grow other places.
Beth the orange are Indian Paintbrush.
Pat yes Ladybird had a lot to do with protecting our wildflowers.
There are a lot of yellow wildflowers mingled in, too, mainly common broomweed and wild mustard.
The 'bonnets and 'brushes are gorgeous!!! We have sand bonnets, a shorter version of the bluebonnet, but they aren't as stately as yours. Loved the pictures! Thanks, Nola, for sharing. Our azaleas are outstanding this year.
It seems someone went to Provence and took some flowers from there... ;)
Texas bluebonnets look exactly like California lupine. Could that be true? It's beautiful no matter where it grows or what it's called. Mimi
Beautiful! Hope to see some little pretties this week, too. We are going down to the Hill Country and Big Bend area.
Nola, it's lovely. I see Indian paintbrush in there too don't I? I wish I were there. :)~~Dee
Aren't they just beautiful?! Every time we pass a field of bluebonnets, I just want to lay in them and soak up the sun!!!
PS-thanks for your encouragement on my gardening folly!
Yum, yum, yum!!! Wish I could come visit...so much to do..so little time! :)
Oh, Nola!! Pure heaven!!
