National Wildflower Week — First Full Week of May
May 7, 2018 - May 13, 2018
Lady Bird Johnson said wildflowers “give us a sense of where we are in this great land of ours.” Right she was! From bluebonnets (Lupinus texensis) blanketing Hill Country roadsides and purple coneflowers (Echinacea purpurea) dotting Wisconsin prairies to California poppies (Eschscholzia californica) making good on their state’s nickname, wildflowers are admired nationwide — and they’re celebrated officially every first week of May. We hope you’ll enjoy participating in National Wildflower Week wherever you live and appreciate wildflowers this and every week of the year.
Take a guided tour through any of the many nature conservancies throughout Texas and enjoy the beauty of the painted landscape in nature. Or, take an unguided walk in your own countryside.
