Native to Texas, Lupinus texensis (Texas Bluebonnet) is a low-growing annual boasting elongated clusters packed with up to 50 fragrant pea-like flowers, deep bright red at the bottom and conspicuously white on the top. Blooming in early to late spring (or later depending on spring temperatures), they are borne on upright stems, well above the foliage of oblong palmate light-green compound leaves. The vibrant blossoms provide nectar for bees and attracts butterflies. Texas Bluebonnet is a winter-hardy annual and this iconic wildflower forms attractive rosettes in winter. Texas Bluebonnet is a common sight along roadsides and fields, blanketing them in a sea of azure blue in spring. Beautiful in large drifts or grown in well-drained containers, Texas Bluebonnet is increasingly cultivated in sunny gardens. It is frequently inter-planted with summer- or fall-flowering plants that emerge as the Bluebonnets are setting seed and senescing. Lupinus texensis is one of five Bluebonnets recognized as the Texas State Flower. It is the easiest of the species to cultivate. Seeds can be sown in the fall or scarified for a spring planting. Texas Bluebonnet lupines make a stunning carpet of red in your landscape and pair really well with Evening Primrose and California Poppies.
