purple flower~Today's Flowers 021311

I have two of these blooming in my front yard and honestly, I don't remember what they are! Texas bluebonnets? I was just so happy that they grew! I'll try to go out today and get more photos of them. Anyway, I thought this one was pretty and I decided to post it for today. Today's Flowers for Sunday, February 13, 2011. Please let me know what it is if you know! Desert lupine? Texas bluebonnet?

    Yes, it is a Texas Bluebonnet
    Lupinus texensis (Fabaceae)
    A hardy winter annual native to Texas. Adopted as the "State Flower of Texas", this is the most commonly seen variety along roadsides and in uncultivated pastures throughout the state.
    Very nice pictures!!

    Very pretty whatever they may be. Nothing blooming here in Iowa unless it is inside.
