How to grow texas bluebonnet

Lupinus texensis

When to plant texas bluebonnet

A winter annual sown from seed in August in full sun (8 to 10 hours of direct sun) and any well-drained soil; it will not perform in poorly drained clay or shade. Lightly cover or rake the seed into the soil and keep it slightly moist; peak bloom comes in late March and early April.

Texas Bluebonnet is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
