I have not been doing enough garden photography. Despite pessimism about Bluebonnets I’ve had quite a few. Of course a lot of the times when you hear rain forecasts you’ll hear “especially East of IH-35”. I think we’ve definitely seen a lot more rain than many parts of Austin.
Mealy Blue Sage with Red Yucca spikes in the background.
While my kids are getting older and less interested in hunting Easter Eggs, my old dog *has* discovered the fun of hunting Easter Eggs and I'm finding the ones she finds discarded around the yard.
Cutleaf Daisy. This came from planting Native American Seed's Shade Friendly Wildflower Mix.
The annual winecups are everywhere in my yard and I do not mind at all. Pictures do not do them justice.
Some pretty Larkspur.
Switch grass. I know most of y'all don't like it, but I do.
I planted a kitchen garden this year. I've got some onions going to seed.
In the front we have a yucca bloom spike surrounded by white mealy blue sage.
Fluffy Texas Bluegrass.
The remaining bluebonnets are fading. But you can see lots of Greg's Mistflower in the background getting ready for the hot summer months.
Plains Coreopsis? Beautiful in any case. You can see the bluebonnets going to seed in front.
And an amazing Retama in full flower.
P.S. I’ve still got 4 hogplum bushes growing. We’ll see, we’ll see…
