Thanks for the new addition, Josephine. We pokey dial-up folks are grateful.. :) Nice photos too! Here is a photo of my S. Herbacea taken this past Spring when it bloomed for the first time in the garden. Sort of strange that it would just show up wild out here in what use to be a cow pasture, now my backyard..lol.

Lee, if you haven't explored Big Bend country yet...you definitely should! And its incredibly close...if ya think about it. And soooo many native plants and animals to enjoy and photograph. :) I still have a "Horse Crippler" cactus that I picked up out there as a child in 1975. I've had it in the ground...in pots...in the ground again...and back in a pot where it has been since 2002...lol...The land out there is breathtaking.... :) A great place to "recharge." :)
