What's Growing On - February 2017

Are you ready for bluebonnet season?  It's not even springtime in the Hill Country yet, and we already have lots of our garden plants showing off!  If you get ready to come see the wildflower trails in the Burnet area, The Verandas Guest House is a great lodging location for you to spend an evening or a weekend! 

The front garden salvia, mountain laurel, rosemary, and roses have started putting on color this week. 

 The wisteria on the patio gate is blossoming and smelling wonderful!  

And of course, the bluebonnets don't want to be left out.  

Lots of sprouts in the front yard and even a few beauties trying to make an early appearance!  

We're starting to see patches along both highways through town.  Should be a great year!

Reserve your weekend at The Verandas Guest House www.verandasburnet.com!
