No seriously, THIS is a Grape vine

Pealing back the layers of a hedgerow over the Winter. It is a seasonal repetition that never gets old. Always looking back in time to what context of trees and system used to be there…sort of a path of discovery in Bucks County. Very small clues, very infrequently offered up at this point. But they are there.

In the mean time, you come across some rediculously big Vine in the traffic of Honeysuckle / Privet / Burning Bush.

The peal on this Grape was so thick. It had dissembled the Black Cherry next to it over decades…quite the dance partners. That is really cutting the rug, literally. I am envious. & I did not cut this vine down. Just released it from the surroundings Dogwood & Cedar.
