Are you growing clarkia in Texas, but don’t know when they’ll bloom?
Getting your Clarkia to bloom is not as easy as it seems.

So if they bloom too early they may die or not last as long. And if they bloom too late they may have small blooms that don’t last long.

When Do Clarkia Bloom in Texas?
As you may have already guessed, there are two main factors that determine when Clarkia will bloom: where your Clarkia are planted & weather (time).
Bloom Time Depends on Where Your Clarkia Are Planted!!!
When your Clarkia will bloom will depend on exactly where it is planted in your yard or garden
In general, expect the following:
- If a clarkia is planted in an area of your yard that receives full sun it will bloom around the same time every year or up to two weeks early due to warm weather and extra sunlight.
- If a clarkia is planted in an area of your yard that received partial sun it will bloom around the same time every year.
- If a clarkia is planted in an area of your yard that receives shade and is not protected from wind or rain it will bloom anywhere from 1 to 3 weeks later than its average time.
