so gorgeous! Those vines are so civilized! Not mine! Will send you a picture! Rosemary......you will not like I do not think! I will send anyway! Winter and Spring!
Beautiful with and without the flowers! Vines can be tricky. When we moved to the family farm, my father-in-law had just finished building a good sized arbor. Nothing had been planted around it. I was in a hurry to create shade, so I planted honeysuckle vines at each of the four corner posts. Well honeysuckle smells heavenly, but is grows like a weed--maybe worse. It requires tons of pruning, but it's worth it.
lisa -- I tried to research the location of this beautiful townhouse and I believe it is in the Kew Gardens neighborhood of London. I have never seen wisteria this color so another reader might know the name of the climbing vine. xo, Rosemary
Linda Sand -- The vine in winter looks like lace on the townhouse. I am quite sure it takes a good deal of pruning to keep it under control. I live both views. I am not a minimalist but I admire those who are. xo, Rosemary
Pam -- I can almost smell your honeysuckle and your arbor must be delightful when the vines are in full bloom. It is labor intensive I'm sure but with very rewarding results in the nice weather when you need to be shaded from the hot sun. xo, Rosemary

It is beautiful. Does anyone know what kind of vine/plant this is? Is this a townhouse in London?
I like the vine better without the flowers. Must be the minimalist in me. :)
