Happy Crossvine

Crossvine blooming on the chicken run

The crossvine we planted at the corner of the chicken runs has come into its own. It has happily spread vines across the welded wire and is in bloom. My eldest even spotted a hummingbird flitting from flower to flower! We chose this location because it gets the most sun of anywhere in the yard, and to provide shade for the chickens in the hot summer. The vine is performing admirably.
