Living in the Hill country, one sees so many beautiful
scenery's. We have been trying for 5 years to grow Blue Bonnets, Texas state flower, without
success. Well, last year we visited the seed farm and bought seeds. The people working there are so helpful and told us how to plant the seeds in the fall. You don't cover them with dirt, but push the seeds in a little bit in the ground and then really water them for weeks if no rain. Well, the Good Lord blessed us this year with ample rain fall and thus our yard is a wonderland of flowers. My Red Bud trees looked amazing.
The red Bonnets are actually named
A@M bonnets as they are the maroon color that
A@M has. I have several of them growing. You have to keep the bluebonnets
separate from the maroon ones, as in cross
pollination they will turn out a funky blue red.

These purple wild flowers grow every where in our
yard. They must know how much I like purple. I will not let Tom mow them as this sight is amazing.
