Texas Firewheels Wildflowers at Sunset

Texas Firewheels Wildflowers at Sunset - These beautiful Texas red firewheels or indian blankets with some horse mint wildflowers mixed in makes for a perfect sunset over these field of wildflowers. This lovely pecan tree was surrounded by a meadow of Texas red firewheels or indian blankets wildflowers as they are also called. The weather has been overcast for weeks now and we haven't been able to capture these wonderful indian paintbrush in this pasture of Texas wildflowers with enough sun to do them justice. Today we actually saw the sun which brighten up these beauties in this field of wildflowers at the base of this pecan tree in the Texas hill country. The indian blankets got the name because they appeared to blanket an area with colors reds and yellows that were seen in many native americans blankets. Red and yellow were the most likely colors for these wildflower even though they can be completely yellow. The colors range from red leaves with the tips being yellow and or more yellow and less red it all depends, but they are all great. They stand about two feet tall that where they get the name indian blankets as they can cover an area like a blanket. Gaillardia pulchella is a North American species of short-lived perennial or annual flowering plants in the sunflower family that are drought tolerant that grow very well in the Texas hill country every spring.
