Thought this might work on an old arbor I have out back. Looks kind of cool.

I’m so glad you posted this! I think I need one for my garden arch.

Another hardy vine that comes back every year, despite freezes and extreme heat...is the Blue Sky Vine (Thunbergia grandiflora). I have grown this vine for 23 years now and it is my favorite now. Very easy to propagate via cuttings.

It apparently attracts hummingbirds...

Good grief, we’ve had those in our yards when growing up and we still have some on our fence. We called them devil’s fingers and as kids picked them and put them on our fingers so as to look like we had these long fingernails.....we didn’t have many toys and mother nature gave us plenty to pretend with.

Those grow way up and sometimes down the trees all around my yard. Didn’t know what they were.
