Spring in San Antonio with our State Flowers



Bluebonnets are one of the most important wildflowers in Texas. They are the state flower.
They can be found along the roadside and it is typically a tradition to take pictures with them when in full bloom. They got their name because the petals resemble a woman's sunbonnet. The bluebonnets are also called buffalo clover. I enjoy them and apparently so did Wally. What is your state flower?

  1. The Queensland state flower is a Cooktown orchid - a very delicate orchid. The National flower for Australia is the Golden Wattle which can be seen on our coat of arms & some coins

  2. Pennsylvania's state flower is the Mountain Laurel. It blooms in late May and into June. It's blossoms are pink and white and looks very pretty.
