V is for Vines

I didn’t think I’d ever find a V in the garden.  I was working on something more abstract for this week’s ABC Wednesday post when I passed the sweet potato Vine, then the bleeding heart Vine…

…then my favorite Vine, Confederate Jasmine.

When blooming in Spring, the jasmine is covered in tiny white flowers, but the smell is by far its best feature.  It’s a neighborhood favorite, Valued for its hardiness and drought-resistance.  The only other scent that can possibly compare wafts from a giant orchid tree on the corner.   

  1. And the leaves have a VEIN-like quality, no? And a VERDANT color, to boot!

    I try to visit as many contributors as possible each week but sometimes I just dont manage it, but we have a great ABC team and between us we see that everybody gets a comment. We are coming to the end of the current round and plans are in store for the next round, I do hope you will be part of the fun! If you would like to be part of the team just drop me an e-mail :-
