In the wayback, the bluebonnets are doing great. I think they’ve hit their peak, though, and will start to fade over the next few weeks.
When we sowed the bluebonnet seeds last year, which we harvested from behind the IBM 900 buildings, we also collected indian paintbrush seeds, along with some red poppy and a bunch of other wildflower seed. The bluebonnets have really taken hold, but the other wildflowers just haven’t shown up — with the happy exception of this one (1) indian paintbrush which I was very excited to find. It’s one of my favorites.
This is a shot of my lone indian paintbrush against a backdrop of bluebonnets. Maybe next year I’ll have a dozen.
