The Best Places to See Bluebonnets in Texas (And Why We Love Springtime in the Country)

Spring in Texas is something special. There’s a shift in the air—warmer days, longer evenings, and a countryside slowly waking up in full color. But nothing says Texas spring like fields painted in bluebonnets. At Roberts & Associates, we live for this time of year. Whether it’s snapping photos of your kids wading through a sea of wildflowers or taking the long way home just to see them bloom, there’s something about spring that reminds us what really matters: slowing down, savoring simple joys, and spending time with the people we love.

Here are some of the best places to catch that perfect bluebonnet moment:

🌾 1. Willow City Loop (Near Fredericksburg)- This iconic drive winds through rolling hills, ranchland, and wildflower-covered roadsides. It’s as “Texas Hill Country” as it gets. A must-visit for that dreamy bluebonnet photo.

🌾 2. Brenham- This charming small town blooms with color every spring and so do the nearby backroads. Bonus: you can make a stop at the Blue Bell Creamery while you’re there.

🌾 3. Ennis- Known as the Official Bluebonnet City of Texas, Ennis has over 40 miles of mapped driving trails. Bring the camera, bring the kids, and prepare for a full day of Texas beauty.

🌾 4. Burnet- Home to the annual Bluebonnet Festival, this Central Texas gem is a celebration of everything spring—music, flowers, parades, and all.

🌾 5. Your Own Backyard- Don’t underestimate the charm of your own fence line or pasture blooming in wildflowers. Some of the best photos come from right outside your door.

Why We Love This Season Spring isn’t just beautiful, it’s a reminder of why we do what we do. It’s when families start planting new gardens, fixing up the barn, or heading to the café in town for a coffee with neighbors. It’s when the land feels alive and the days feel just a little bit longer.

At Roberts & Associates, we’re proud to serve the people who call this land home. From home insurance to rural property coverage, we offer policies that fit your life, because we live it too. So this spring, take the photos, plant the garden, sit on the porch. And know we’re right here beside you, every step of the way.

Insuring the Country Lifestyle.
