Official Flower Since 1901
Our state flower's named for its hue
It's really a beautiful shade of blue
It's one of our favorites, we must admit
That's why in Texas we love the bluebonnet!
FRAGRANT FACT: Also
known as the buffalo clover, the bluebonnet was named for its resemblance
to a woman's sunbonnet!
STATE SCENTS: The bluebonnet blooms in early spring throughout central and
southern Texas!
