When we think about flowers in the state of Texas, bluebonnets come to mind immediately. And rightfully so – their vibrant color lights up the hill country highways like nothing else in the world. But there’s another beautiful plant that deserves some recognition as well, and that plant is lavender. The lavender fields of Blanco are unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. It’s almost as if someone laid a blanket of purple on an entire patch of grass – take a look for yourself.
