TEXAS BLUE BONNET 
(Lupinus Texensis) 
The Texas State flower. Grows wild all 
over the prairies of Central’ and South Texas. 
There is nothing more beautiful than the 
fields when the beautiful flowers are in bloom 
in the early spring. Plants grow to 12 inches 
high and are covered with beautiful dark 
blue flowers tinged with white. They will 
grow on poor as well as on rich soil. Sow 
the seed very early in the spring, or in 
August, September, October or November, 
covering about one-half inch deep. As the 
seeds are very hard, puncture each seed with 
a sharp needle and soak overnight before 
planting. If the weather is dry give them 
plenty of water. They bloom in Texas in 
March, April and May. After maturing seed, 
the plant dies and the seed falls on the 
ground and comes up again the next spring.
