YEs Mam, as G'Rail said, the Hill COuntry is well known for it's Wildflower Beauty.
When we lived out there in Nix, we had very large and beautiful BLuebonnets between our front fence and the Road.
I put up a small wire fence so that the Hwy Department couldn't mow them and I took care of them myself.
They got Prettier every year and very tall also !

I love this time of year. Went up to the lake house last week for a few days. Our states beauty is about to enter full springtime regalia.

yes indeed, Brother G'Rail - - - - I really like it when our Purple sage in front blooms but it's too early for that blessing, however, the Red-Tip Fatima is certainly nice !
