Wildflowers in the Garden

Springtime in Texas is the beginning of wildflower season. Across the state, annual flowers paint the open fields and roadsides with an array of color highlighted by the iconic Texas bluebonnet.

Every year, the Garden celebrates its native wildflowers with plantings throughout Concert Lawn, Old Fashioned Garden, Hill Country Meadow, Cactus Garden, and the hillsides around Halsell Way. These areas have been covered with bluebonnets, pink evening primroses, basket-flowers, gauras, Indian blankets, California poppies, Drummond phlox, toadflax, and others, forming stunning displays.

 This spring, bring your family and friends to experience meadows blooming with a wide range of beautiful, fragrant, and colorful flowering plants.
