One of the most beautiful ground covers is the Texas state flower which is the Texas bluebonnet. Bluebonnets are wild flowers which will spread and completely cover large areas. They are absolutely gorgeous flowers and when their royal blue color saturates an area, it can be quite mesmerizing and relaxing to enjoy.
