Wow! I love it- there are flowers everywhere!

I can't see the vine, really- can you get a closer shot of the leaves? What I can see looks like it might be Virginia Creeper (which is very aggressive) but I'm really not sure.

Just added another picture. Thanks, I absolutely adore the garden. It's just a shame I'm renting and can't buy the house. Still, I feel very grateful for having lived here. The lady who owns it is in her nineties now and had the property for ages. Even her cats are buried there, there's plaques for them in the path.

Yep. Virginia Creeper.

Love the icon, btw.

It all looks wonderful :) And a pleasant sight since we're in the middle of winter here and almost everything is dormant :(
