Texas's official flower is the bluebonnet.

Fields and roads throughout Texas are blanketed in vivid blue when the famous bluebonnet (Lupinus texensis) blooms in the spring. It is a representation of the natural beauty of the state and is especially connected to the open spaces of Texas. Because of its cultural significance in Texas and its beautiful, almost legendary look, the Bluebonnet was named the state flower in 1901. A beloved emblem of the Lone Star State, the flower is frequently photographed during its yearly bloom and is honored in festivals.
