Description
Texas designated the bluebonnet as the official state flower in 1901. Bluebonnet flowers were named for the blue color and sunbonnet-shaped petals (though not all bluebonnets are blue). All State Flowers
Bluebonnets are not just the state flower - Texas has also designated an official bluebonnet tartan, bluebonnet city (Ennis, Texas), bluebonnet trail (also in Ennis), bluebonnet festival (Chappell Hill Bluebonnet Festival), and bluebonnet flower song.
Of course, there are other wildflowers that grow during the annual bloom and when I have photographed some and can identify them I will.

This must be quite a sight in person. Wonderful capture for us who can't be there.
