A Vine Time Part 2






These vine images are from a client's house. I honestly don't know what kind of vines they are, but I thought they were so cool I had share them with you. I like how sculptural the last one is, I don't know if I've ever seen a vine with that much character before. The vine growing up their house does a nice job of breaking up the wall space in their backyard. It is nice to have a different texture. It will look really great once we install the landscape. My favorite thing about vines is their imperfection. They seem to have a mind of their own, but they are fun to work with. I am excited to see how our new landscape plan will work with these established vines. It is going to be beautiful... (it better be)... they are having a wedding in their backyard this fall! (stay tuned for follow up photos).

  1. This vine is luch and green but a bit overwhelming.

  3. It looks like the stems became a separate element of outdoor decor. I like it!

  4. Yes, it is a unique element in this garden and it will be fun to see how it works once we modify the garden with some new plants and stonework.
