South Texas is a Guerilla Gardener's DREAM.
Wild figs and wild pomegranates!!!
By wild I mean; escaped from landscaping into the woods (my adopted gardens).

Thank you father mother god.

Any time you find a wild thing growing... look around. there is likely more than one. If the conditions are right for one plant to survive wild, pretty much anything will spread a little. I actually found four separate mistletoe colonies. When I found it I KNEW i was looking at a parasitic herb, but I wasn't sure which one. Id never seen wild mistletoe. So I marked my map, took pics, and when I got home I researched..... WHALLA!! the real deal.

I KNEW the what the grapes were, so I waited for the grapes to be ripe and returned to harvest both.

Father mother God rewarded my patience with a surprise gift if a couple hundred empty land snail shells. Weirdest thing... but I dont question these things anymore.

Ill post about the snails soon... and I have pics of them in the wild too;)
