Fredericksburg, Texas Flowers

Fredericksburg, Texas Flowers

April 12 - 17, 2007.

We parked our motorhome at Lady Bird Johnson City Park 3-miles south of Fredericksburg on SR-16; $20 FHU including cable with paved sites. We tend to like Lady Bird Johnson City Park when we are in Fredericksburg because the RV-sites are situated under the canopy of mature pecan trees but there are several more RV-Parks that are good as well. The Fredericksburg RV-Park on Highway Street is another good park but it cost more and doesn't have mature trees that provide shade.

Fredereicksburg is located in the heart of "Texas Hill Country".

In the Hill Country surrounding Fredericksburg deer and cactus go together like a hand and glove.

Roses, such as these, are a common fixture in Fredericksburg. Rose bushes like this one that have several different shades of pink and yellow flowers are very popular in Fredericksburg, like they may be the official city plant or something.

Bluebonets seem to do best in more moist areas. Cows, cactus and bluebonets are Hill Country fixtures.

This spectacular bloom is on a velvetpod mimosa bush. They are truly spectacular in bloom. I wonder how large they grow? We do not see them any larger that this.
