Redroot
Red Root


Ceanothus herbaceus
Buckthorn Family - Rhamnaceae

 Bloom period for this Texas Wildflower is March through May.  These look like little puff balls from a distance.  Usually in large colonies and growing in rocky soil.  I couldn't find info on why it's called Redroot. The tips of the leaves have a reddest brown color but not sure if that's why.
