Wisteria

Spring is continuing to bloom here and I was so pleased when my neighbor’s wisteria vine extended itself along my back fence.

I watched and waited, hoping to get some flowers, and lo! it produced several lovely branches of flowers.

I was delighted. So pretty and with a delicate fragrance. 

I took this photo — and just as well I did, because overnight the possums found it and devoured every single flower!

Oh well, at least I was able to enjoy it for a short time. There’s still one dangling flower cluster in the lemon tree, and I expect the possums will find it and then go on to eat the lemon rinds.

I can’t really blame them — We’ve taken over their habitat so it’s fair enough that they eat what they can of our gardens.
