Dicentra scandens
I have just fallen in love with this vine that we put in a semi-shady area
of the garden earlier this year. It climbs around on a wooden fence & into a kerria rose, with self-clinging tendrils. It has SO many heart-shaped lemon-yellow blooms, it sometimes looks like a teency bunches of bananas all over the vines. I'm warned it's a tender perennial & may not return next year. I wonder if anyone has experience with it & if I dare presume it is going to be a successful perennial on Puget Sound maritime weather zone 8 pretty mild most of the time. I don't want it to ever be dead. -paghat the ratgirl -- "Of what are you afraid, my child?" inquired the kindly teacher. "Oh, sir! The flowers, they are wild," replied the timid creature. -from Peter Newell's "Wild Flowers" See the Garden of Paghat the Ratgirl: http://www.paghat.com/ |
