-- W.M., Lake Jackson. A. Texas bluebell, Eustoma grandiflorum, blooms in summer and early fall and will grow in most areas of the state in sand, loam or clay and in sun or partial shade. This wildflower even tolerates some poor drainage. The similar E. exaltatum also grows in the salty climate near the Gulf.
Scientifically named Lupinus texensis, the bluebonnet is also called buffalo clover, wolf flower, and (by the Mexicans) el conejo. It was adopted as the official state flower by the Texas Legislature in 1901.
