Thank you for the flowers, Lady Bird


When you see beautiful stands of flowers along highways, you have Lady Bird Johnson to thank. Years ago, Lyndon Baines Johnson's First Lady set out to beautify America and plant the bare strips along highways with the seeds of native flowers. Almost fifty years later, our land is filled with her beautiful legacy.

Lady Bird died today. May she be forever surrounded by flowers.
