My Top Picks for the 2014 Spring Wildflowers

Most of these were taken in Guadalupe county, and a couple were taken in Gonzales county. Each season has it's star blooms and blossoms. Spring features the bluebonnet, with a supporting cast of Indian paintbrush, coreopsis, phlox and assorted daisies. Of course, Texans are highly partial to the bluebonnet, but as you can see, there are some other awesome wildflowers to be found during the spring season.

A Smattering of Central Texas Wildflowers



Consider the lilies how they grow: 
they toil not, they spin not;
 and yet I say unto you,
 that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
Luke 12:27
