The Alamo and its defenders have a place in American history of mythic proportions. Stories of Davy Crockett, Jim Bowie and William Travis have been a staple of American Legend recounted in books, Hollywood movies, TV shows and Disney programs, and the memory and image of the Alamo has raised patriotic fervor in children and adults alike. But what role did the Alamo rally play in the story of Mexico and America in the 19th century, and what were the issues driving the Texas War of Independence?

We gardeners are excited about and make plans to increase the diversity of plants in our gardens and landscapes. A whole new level of appreciation arises when we learn to recognize that many of the plants we grow and see growing in the wild are related to each other, as in a family. For example, alyssum, broccoli, and radishes all belong to the mustard family. Carrots, dill, and poison hemlock are related to the carrot family.
