Everything looks so pretty. My Eyelash salvia is blooming as well. The hummingbirds love it. Wish I could find a snapdragon vine. Would love to add it to my garden.
It's on the species list for the native plant sale at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center this weekend.
The Native Plant nursery in Medina also has the snapdragon vines - in purple as well as white. Look for entrance to the nursery right across from Love Orchard's tree farm on the main road through Medina. It's kind of hard to find, but the orchard makes it easy.
I love the wood sorrel. One whole side of my yard "lawn" is blooming in this now.
I love the Snapdragon Vines-reminds me of my Mom having Morning Glories growing when I was little.
Thanks for the heads up about getting them at Medina-how fast do these grow?
The photos are just fabulous as always Sheryl.
Thanks for teaching us about our Native Texas Plants! Still a lot to learn. Martha
