Here's me retro-blogging again. I just ran across this picture of the Virginia Creeper on the garage roof, taken 25 October 2010, just before we had it completely hacked back. Always with reluctance, as it's beautiful, but also massively heavy. Roof tiles were cracking under the strain. Our lovely neighbour M. Macris was concerned it was heading his way; time for the short back and sides. We're hoping we can contain it on the wall, but it grows Little Shop of Horrors fast, so we'll see who wins.
