We left Luckenback, Texas ( last blog) and headed toward Hwy 290 ,then turned West toward Fredericksburg, TX. |
Seven miles East of Fredericksburg on Hwy 290, we made a stop at the "Nations largest working wildflower farm". |
The business is called Wildseed Farm. |
Wildseed Farm grows fields of wildflowers for the seed. |
The business has a very large gift shop, and several other shops around the nursery. |
After sharing a small dish of peach ice cream, ( this area grows 40% of the peaches grown in Texas), we started our walk around the different fields of wildflowers. |
Iceland Poppy |
Rocket Larkspur |
More Rocket Larkspur just coming on. |
Desert Verbena |
California Poppies. |
Crimson Clover |
Alamo Fire / Maroon Bluebonnet |
Wildseed Farm had a large field with paths that you could walk amongst the wildflowers. |
Texas Paintbrush |
Blue Bonnets and Red Corn Poppies |
Red Corn Poppy / Flanders Poppy |
California Poppy |
As we left the Wildseed Farm we noted this sign. There is a stage with a large seating area in the middle of the farm where festivals are held. |
