Looking back at the calendar cloth

One of my favorite patches on the Remember 2016 cloth is this one ...


which shows how useful a calendar cloth can be ...



Made on March 11, 2016, the patch depicts a dewberry flower, the first of which appeared this year on March 17 ...


There are many more buds ...


and flowers promising a bumper crop of tart berries to come ...


Meantime, there were also first appearances of Prairie Verbena ...


and Texas Mountain Laurel ...


along with the promise of future Bluebonnets ...


Zexmenia ...


and Stork's Bill, so named for the appearance of its (eventual) seed head ...


We're also enjoying herbs in abundance ...



whilst eagerly awaiting the fullness of time in Don's newest rock garden ...
