Texas gardeners often use the pawpaw as an understory tree. Desert Willow.

I have been away for two weeks and have not heard about any such spectacular sightings yet, but this is the time of year blooms appear, so it's possible there are at least some flowers out there. Hybridized versions of the Texas bluebell, usually called lisianthus, are available at nurseries mostly in spring. You might check with garden centers in your area to see when supplies are most plentiful.
