Eustoma exaltatum ssp. russellianum

Common Names: Texas Bluebells, Texas Bluebell, Bluebell, Showy Prairie Gentian, Prairie Gentian

Texas Bluebells features blue-green leaves and upright stems that reach heights of 1 to 3 feet, topped with blooms that can be found in shades of blue, purple, pink, white, or vibrant yellow. They are bell-shaped and grow upright, each flower appearing singly. Deadheading the spent blooms can be beneficial, but is not necessary.

Depending on where it grows, this species can behave like an annual, biennial, or perennial. Most commonly in its native regions, it is a perennial. The name Eustoma originates from Greek, combining "eu" (meaning "good") and "stoma" (meaning "mouth"), which describes the large opening into the flower's "throat" where the corolla lobes gracefully meet.
