    So vibrant. Great capture against the rock (or tree?). Of, course it’s creeping. 🙂

    I have one in my garden – the only plant to change colours during autumn 🙂

    I love my rare finds of this. The plant’s around, but we don’t often get the right temperatures to begin the change. This is glorious!

    ♥️🧡🙏 Near a coffee shop I go to, an entire side of a building used to be ablaze with lush Virginia creeper colour every fall. I was appalled to see a new business owner recently remove it. Now, all they have remaining is an ugly blank wall facing a once beautified-by-nature side street.

      So sad when that happens. I guess many don’t think beyond what they perceive to be an eyesore (from their personal POV). They don’t think about the birds and insects that use it for food and cover, nor the fact that it provides oxygen, cleaning the air, or lastly, its beauty, esp. in fall. ‘Forgive them, Lord, for they know not what they do.’ xo

    What a beauty! It really proclaims “Fall” loud and clear!

    This is one vine we share. I have also been admiring their beautiful color change.

    I have some growing over the swing area. So pretty. I was just sitting under some this evening looking around at the trees.

    It sure is a beautiful color … hard not to take notice when it is present!
