It's probably 20 feet stretched out. I will try again to upload the picture of the vine. Still having major issues loading pictures. Seems to be a Mac vs. Cubits issue. Other Cubit members on Macs are have the same problem

Beautiful photos and plants (as always) Joanne. That black-eyed susan vine is larger than any we can get to grow in our climate--just beautiful.

Love the vines!! This year I'm trying for vigna caracalla. Only one in 4 seeds germinated so far. I usually do petunias, morning glories and blushing susies.

Love that Cathedral Bell or Cup & Sauce, My favorite vine which is an annual for me is Mandevilla. They come in different colors but I got this one on sale for 2.50 last October and kept it alive in the house over the winter.

I think this delicate vine is called Asarina. I love how it made a natural star today growing in my barberry bush.

Yup, that's an Asarina; I really like them, too. I've brought them in and overwintered them, too. I have pink ones and blue ones. Tried the white, but had no luck.

I kept one in a one gallon pot for a couple of years, then planted it out in a larger container. Of course, the winter took that one out, but it was really pretty and got MUCH bigger!
