Important Information
Image Selection: The objective of this posting is to provide a series of images that reflect the major themes and some important moments of Mrs. Johnson’s full and remarkable life. There are some voids in the collections; for example, no images of her wedding are known to exist. Many of the images appear in the photo-essay book, Lady Bird Johnson – A Life Well Lived by Harry Middleton, Director Emeritus of the Johnson Library. The Library’s Museum Store offers copies of the book for purchase.
Image Files Sized for Best Quality: As an experiment we are offering these images in file sizes larger than those found elsewhere on our site. The smaller .tif files are sized appropriately for desktop publishing at about 300 ppi. The larger files are intended for use by commercial photo labs with high-speed internet connections. The large files are too large for most home-user systems to handle and may crash them. Some Internet Service Providers automatically reject large files. To get a much smaller file (72 ppi), right-click on the image on each image’s web page, and save.

Lady Bird Johnson, our former first lady, and Actress Helen Hayes founded an organization in 1982 to protect and preserve North America's native plants and natural landscapes. First as the National Wildflower Research Center and later as the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, this special place exists to introduce people to the beauty and diversity of wildflowers and other native plants. Every day, the Wildflower Center brings life to Mrs. Johnson's vision in its public gardens, its woodlands and sweeping meadows as well as in internationally influential research. In 2006, the Center became an Organized Research Unit of the University of Texas at Austin.
Decades ago, Mrs. Johnson recognized that our country was losing its natural landscapes and its natural beauty. As much as 30 percent of the world’s native flora is at risk of extinction. The Wildflower Center was intended to help preserve and restore that beauty and the biological richness of North America. Since then, the Center has become one of the country’s most credible research institutions and effective advocates for native plants.
The Center’s gardens display the native plants of the Central Texas Hill Country while the Plant Conservation Program protects the ecological heritage of Texas by conserving its rare and endangered flora. The Native Plant Information Network is a database of more than 7,200 native species available online.
The Land Restoration Program uses the science of healing and renewing damaged and even destroyed ecological systems to restore balance to the landscape. The Center’s education programs for children and adults teach people about their natural surroundings and how to grow native plants in their own backyards.
Nature Nights
The goal of the Native Plant Information Network is to assemble and disseminate information that will encourage the cultivation, conservation, and preservation of wildflowers and other native flora throughout North America.
