Bluebonnet (Lupinus): Texas State Flower
Symbolism: Fortitude, Pride

The Bluebonnet fills the horizon with rich blue hues each spring. Known to grow in other places, Texas houses the most Bluebonnets of any place in the world, for their long days and sandy soils make the perfect condition for these nitrogen-fixing flower towers.

The Lone Star State’s Bluebonnet was discovered and named after the early settler’s headwear which shaded pioneers from the sun, and has since been a favorite flower choice for Texan bouquets.

According to historian Jack Maguire, “the bluebonnet is to Texas what the shamrock is to Ireland, the cherry blossom to Japan, the lily to France, the rose to England, and the tulip to Holland.”

Fun Fact: The flowers communicate with colors, changing their centers from pure white to blush pink when their sweet nectar has been enjoyed, post-pollination.
