Texas Wildflower Report

Summary: Roadsides along major and most county roads in Mason County are in the early stages of a full bloom. Some blooms are older due to early blooming. I did not see any seedpods. I saw lots of new buds. Bluebonnet blooms were extending beyond the roadsides along many of the roads I traveled. Roadside blooms should be good for another 7 to 10 days. Some fields will likely develop more within the next 10 days. There are plenty of blooms along most roads, but some favorite spots are not doing as well. The ** roads in my report are above average. Nothing I saw was better than 2010 at this stage, but some was better than I have seen in years.
