I am sorry, but this simply is not true. Many Texas wildflowers need those

do you know if Texas Paintbrush, Castilleja indivisa, is one of these?
Yes, it is. It needs a particular native grass...I'm not sure which. It's
actually borderline parasitic in that it really does need companions to
thrive.
I have mine inter planted with the bluebonnets and since they are legumes and
fix nitrogen, I have a nice stand.
Thanks v
That is a glorious combination!!
