I was actually getting kind of anxious, wondering if we had driven almost 100 miles for nothing. We had a little pitstop in Fredricksburg for some coffee and antique shopping and then continued our way up north, following a small and winding country road (FM 2323) toward Llano. It is one of the best in Texas!!!Īs we were leaving San Antonio on I-10 heading West, we saw beautiful colors along the Highway. Oh, and when you are in Llano, check out Cooper’s BBQ. Here is a link to our route, if you are interested, where exactly we went. According to the Group’s members the Hill Country was going through its peak bloom last weekend and the closest spot to see lots of wildflowers was between Fredricksburg and Llano. So before we went on our little day trip, I had a look as well. There are even Facebook groups dedicated to Bluebonnet sightings in the Lonestar state. Wildflowers are a big thing in Texas and taking your family portraits in a patch of Bluebonnets is like a rite of passage for a true Texan. Yet just like with the Cherry Blossom Blooms all over the world, you can never guarantee that you’ll be at the right spot at the right time.Īs you drive through the Texas countryside, you see patches of colors popping up along the highway. So if you are planning a trip to Texas to see and photograph the wildflowers do some research before to increase your chances. The tricky thing about seeing the Texas Wildflowers is that they don’t arrive on a set schedule, they don’t bloom in the same spots every year and they always seem to disappear much quicker than anticipated. There are simply so many fun things to do in Texas Hill Country, you should definitely put it on your Texas bucket list! When is Wildflower Season in Texas? The Texas Hill County is a perfect day trip from either San Antonio or Austin, and even if it is not Texas Wildflower Season, I am sure you’ll enjoy the beautiful rolling hills and picturesque farm land. So last weekend, we (the husband, my mother-in-law and I, and our lovely dog Robby) took a drive through the picturesque Texas Hill Country – one of the most stunning places to visit in the South – to enjoy the peak season of the Texas Wildflower bloom and were rewarded with some stunning pictures. A friend of mine told me all about her Ennis Bluebonnet Trail adventure and so this year, I finally had to go see the Texas Wildflowers myself. All over Texas, the countryside turns into a painter’s palate of blues and reds, yellows and purples dotting the fresh green of spring.
