     In March I finally did what I wanted to do for a long, long time--see the famous Texas wildflowers of spring.  Quite a delight, it was.  I was primarily within a hundred miles from San Antonio.  The only flower I knew was Bluebonnets.  Now I wish I had along a guidebook to such flowers.

     This post is the last post of the tour of the Sievert Garden that began in 2019.  It ends in my cactus garden, which is on the north side of the front lawn.  All the cacti are in containers and are taken in my basement for the winter.

     The rocks came from central Wisconsin.  The skull is of a horse I found while hunting in Montana.

     The last photo shows Mulenbeckia axilarius, or Wire vine, on the left and an Arenaria species on the right.
