PRODUCT DETAILS
Texas Bluebonnet (Lupinus Texenis) is a wildflower with beautiful blue display, easy to grow from seed in a well drained soil with a ph level between 6-7.
The flowers of Bluebonnet are abundant in early spring, attracting butterflies and a variety of bees, including honeybees.
Texas Bluebonnet wildflowers belong to the lupine family, with large, palmate, green leaves and lance-shaped leaflets. The blooms have dark blue clusters of up to 50 fragrant pea-like flowers. The end of the cluster has contrasting white blooms.

Ideal time to plant bluebonnets is in the fall, especially if planting by seed. Read How To Grow Texas Bluebonnet From Seeds here.
Once Bluebonnets established just sit back and let them be! As long as they have plenty of sun and well-drained soil they are going to thrive.
For a beautiful display, mix them in with perennials to add early spring color before the perennials take off.
If one year bluebonnets are superabundant, there are more seeds still in the soil to germinate for the next year. When it comes to establishing Texas Bluebonnet, the key is you’ll need to be patient.
