Description
On March 7, 1901, Lupinus subcarnosus became the only species of bluebonnet recognized as the state flower of Texas, however Lupinus texensis emerged as the favorite of most Texans. So, in 1971, the Texas Legislature made any similar species of Lupinus that could be found in Texas the state flower. Their deep-blue blossoms can be seen from March through May in most areas of Texas, as they are heavily planted on roadsides and highway rights of way.
Indian paintbrush, sometimes called Scarlet paint brush, is one of Texas' most beautiful flowers. They vary in color from orange, and scarlet to cream and yellow. There are several species of paintbrush.

Ah, someday I am going to visit Texas in the spring for this visual feast. Truly a magical carpet, Judy.
