A month ago it wasn’t blazing summer in Austin but gentle spring. Early April found me on a wildflower safari with Patterson Webster, visiting from Canada, and my friend Diana Kirby.

The Antique Rose Emporium in Brenham

– TodayHeadline

We drove out to Brenham for lunch at Truth BBQ — yum! — bluebonnet fields, and plant shopping at the Antique Rose Emporium, where the display gardens were blushing with poppies. I love the way they seed poppies into their xeric beds for spiky-soft spring combos like this.

With plant purchases stowed in the trunk, we headed on to Round Top, where we stopped at Junk Gypsy, a boho-cowgirl home goods and clothing shop.

Inside the airy, barn-like store, it was all bohemian hippie-meets-redneck, ruffles and fringe and sparkly belt buckles in a wink-wink, over-the-top Texas style. How did I not know about this place?
