Note: These are out industry wide. Be careful of vendors selling the purple lupine as purple bluebonnet. They look similar but they are not the same.

Texas Native Purple Heart Bluebonnet seeds deliver an exceptional cultivar of the iconic state flower, bred through collaboration with Douglass King Seeds and Dr. Jerry M. Parsons. These non-GMO, open-pollinated seeds produce plants with striking deep purple blooms that command attention in borders, wildflower meadows, and native plant gardens. Unlike standard bluebonnets, this variety offers gardeners a sophisticated color variation while maintaining the hardiness and low-maintenance characteristics that make bluebonnets a cornerstone of Texas landscapes. The 100-seed packet provides ample material for establishing a substantial display or conducting succession plantings. Ideal for USDA zones 5–9, these seeds thrive in well-draining soil and full sun, requiring minimal fertilizer once established. Open-pollinated genetics ensure seed-saving capability for future seasons, making this an economical choice for committed gardeners and small-scale growers seeking authentic native Texas flora with distinctive visual impact.
