Basic Information

 

Common Name:

 

    Texas Bluebonnet

 

Scientific Name:

 

    Lupinus Subcarnosus Hook

 

Interesting Fact:

 

    Texas State Flower

 

The Texas bluebonnet is actually an annual plant but its blooming season begins in the winter and its peak bloom is in late march. It grows practically all over the places but it’s mostly found in two county Leon County and Hidalgo County in the Valley. It grows in loamy sand type soil so its roots don't dig to deep. Also the biome that the area where the bluebonnet is found is called the Temperate Grasslands, Savannas, Scrub lands.

 

 

 

Extra facts

Texas actually has 5 different state flower but the Lupinus Hook actually has the title. The reason that they have 5 different flowers is because there where many other choices that would fit more with the background of the state such as the cactus. The bluebonnet does not only come in blue but also in white, red and even pink . also they have been trying to great other colors such as lavender and maroon. When I looked into the fact about the law of picking the flower. I found out that it is not fully true but it is against the law to pick any type pf plant from a state park.
