Bruce John Riddell landscape July 11, 2010

Quick question

Can anybody identify this vine, or is it something really obvious and I’m just being lame? Looks like beans meets morning glory, and then what? Something east-coasty I’m sure.

From landscape architect Bruce John Riddell in Bar Harbor, ME. If you love stone in the landscape, you’re going to love that he uses it by the ton. No such thing as stone-overload in Garden Tour One from his gallery.

whatever

The vine looks similar to the first year concord grape vine I have on my garden arch.  I’ll send a photo via “reply” on your e-mail.  I only have room for one arch, and on it I have two roses, one on each side that meet in the middle, a flowering vine(??),and now the grape vine.  Which ever vine wins, stays.  I’m rooting for the grapes because I like to make grape jelly.
Do grapes grow in Maine?  I hadn’t heard that it was wine country.

When you click through to the website you can see the leaves are very large, and look like they could even be fuzzy. No shine. Hmmmm….

Yikes.  Photo is way to small to tell for sure, but try Cissus or Parthenocissus.  Variety?  You’re on your own!
