Bluebonnets and Indian Paintbrush.

These are phlox -- They come in red, pink, and purple.

We call the flower below Indian Paintbrush. They come in different colors but the red and orange are the most common in this area. This particular clump was a bright orange when the sun hit it.

This year we saw many, many of the yellow flowers shown below. I couldn't remember ever having seen them in such profusion in the past. I found out that they are ...Rapistrum Rugosum... which is also known as Turnip Weed. Unfortunately, it is a highly invasive plant that is threatening to crowd out some of the native wildflowers.

Bluebonnets -- the Texas state flower. These are members of the lupin (lupine) family and grow in many places. We even saw them growing in Alaska!

They actually come in different colors but this beautiful blue is the color that we love here in Texas!

Hope you enjoyed some of our Texas spring!
