bluebonnets

The year 2004 was the very best show of bluebonnets we ever had. This area is only part of the show.

This is the same area today.  The bluebonnets went down hill from 2004 on and we decided to quit fighting. The last straw was the severe drought starting around 2009 and continuing until we had bluebonnets blooming when they were barely 3 inches tall.

So, 2009 started this garden project. We've come a long way................

spring 2011-severe drought year

 

 

3 years ago I transplanted bluebonnets in this neighbor's yard. only 5 plants.

This beauty is growing in the "wrong" place.  I have to leave it there!

This large plant is touched by frost. The leaves are elongated and to me not a healthy plant. It came up in an "odd" area as well.

 

More of the neighbor's plants.

These are as well. They don't look spectacular, but they will bloom their hearts out.
 

I am going to publish this as is. It is now weeks later and things have CHANGED.
