The indian paintbrush have come out to play at Purple Ranch. We only have a few but each year we get a few more. I would love to see a completely covered field of blue bonnets and indian paintbrush. How great would that be. Until next time. Lavender Up!

I agree - a whole field of blue bonets and those gorgeous Indian paintbrushes would be a stunning sight indeed.

Those are very pretty. I don't think I've ever seen them before, but I agree they would look great with Blue Bonnets!

Indian Paintbrush has always been my favorite native wildflowers, I just love the color.
Thanks for the pictures

I love to drive the Texas highways and see the Paintbrush and Bluebonnet mixed. They are indeed a sight to see.

Thanks for posting the IP, I've heard of them but never saw any. Any idea how long seeds would be viable? I did have some somewhere but never did anything with them. They are very pretty.
