The bluebonnets are here

Bluebonnets are the state wildflower of Texas. They remind me a bit of bluebells in that they spread like crazy and manage to survive anywhere, even in the middle of highways. I have three different patches throughout the garden. The first was a couple of plants in Al's side garden and I transplanted a couple of plants and scattered some seeds in the extension of the garden. Here is the first bloom of 2014. Tourists travel to central Texas to take photos in the fields of bluebonnets but I don't think I have planted enough to expect any crowds journeying to Cloverleaf Corner.
