==History== Flowella was founded in 1909 by promoters Burton and Danforth.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/hrf13 | title = Flowella, Texas | publisher = [[The Handbook of Texas]] online | date = | accessdate = 2008-05-10}}</ref> The community was planned with a flowing well as its centerpiece.<ref name="Texas Escapes">{{cite web | url = http://www.texasescapes.com/SouthTexasTowns/Flowella-Texas.htm | title = Flowella, Texas | publisher = Texas Escapes Online Magazine | date = | accessdate = 2009-05-10}}</ref> A post office was established in Flowella in 1910. It remained in operation for the next 13 years. Sixty people were living in the community in 1914. The town also had a hotel and general store. The growth of nearby [[Falfurrias, Texas|Falfurrias]] kept the population of Flowella small.<ref name="Texas Escapes"/> It exists today as a rural, dispersed community.
