Description
Scenes of Bluebonnets in bloom are a favorite subject for artists and photographers across Texas. When conditions are right, entire fields turn blue from the dense growth of this beautiful flower. The best bluebonnet seasons occur occur after winters that are very cold and very wet. Interestingly, the more miserable the winter, the more beautiful the spring. Since the bluebonnet plants grow all winter, it is the winter rains that are really needed to have beautiful blooms in springtime. In addition, very cold conditions help the seeds germinate, so winters with extended periods of cold will yield the densest growths of bluebonnets.
