Texas is full of bluebonnets in the Summer, but I don't have one single
plant on my 11 acres Does anybody know where I can buy Bluebonnet plants,
either online or at a nursery? One year I found a plant at my local Target,
but I never find them anymore

I don't think the police would take too kindly to me digging up a bunch of
plants in the center median of Interstate 30, but I sure am tempted when I
see the thousands of plants growing along there, LOL!

Ideally, I would like to cover at least 1/2 an acre of my land in them.

degree weather....gotta LOVE Texas!)



The bluebonnet is a type of lupine. Can't you find seeds? When I was in
TX, we were given seeds in our packet of freebies.

They sell all kinds of wild flower seed. I got candy striped cosmos
and picotee cosmos among others last year, but they're in texas and
have the texas bluebonnet seed.

Keep in mind they're poisonous to livestock.
