First, I was on a run, so I didn't have enough time to find the best shot... these are quick snaps... but I finally found some wild bluebonnets to photograph for you... and they were so perfectly set against a rundown farm house too...
Oh, how beautiful! Such amazing color, and they are as thick as thieves there!! Thanks for showing these great flowers in a field, Claude...love them!!!
Pudgeduck - Bluebonnets are bienials and have a long blooming season... They be blooming through April and at least the first part of May, into June if we have a wet year. They then produce seeds that will sprought in the late fall, grow all winter and bloom next year.
Phoenix C - That curly willow started as one of those twisted branches in a floral arrangement. It grew roots and I planted it outside. It's not supposed to grow here, it's a northern tree...

ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! I agree, the best is the last one. How long will they last?
