TEXAS HILL COUNTRY


I have heard about the rare beauty of the Texas hill country, and Renate and Harry took us out to view a favorite haunt of theirs, Canyon Lake, northwest of San Antonio. Although the bluebonnets had been spent, there were lovely wildflowers everywhere among the oaks and in the meadows. This little green flower enchanted me. We rarely see green blossoms, possibly because there is so much other green around us in the plant world. These were the softest sage green and the honey bees were just loving them. I would love to go back during seeding time and gather some of these for my own garden.


Thanks Renate and Harry for a fantastic afternoon spent in the country with you. We are looking forward to talking with you soon.
