No Wisteria Here

This is a sight that will not be seen in Spring 2010 on Block 832, a tall pine tree draped in wisteria. Our neighbor severed all the vines last year as part of a massive cleanup of his back yard in anticipation of a big party. Wisteria can be a nuisance, but this sight was one I always enjoyed in spring.

The wisteria vine dropped about a zillion seeds as it was being destroyed , so perhaps in a couple of years it will recreate the effect of a huge, lavender drapery.
