In embarrassing news, that pesky one-seeded bur cucumber – an invasive vine that is infesting our hillside – turns out to be an as-yet unidentified species of wild grape.
See? Grapes. Out of reach, high up in an apple tree. It’s still making a nuisance of itself, though. It has designs on the phone pole and electric/cable line to the house.
I’m not the only one who’s confused. This is a CROCUS, in JULY. Please to note the little red bug, lurking to the lower left. [Editor's note: I will later realize this is a hosta.]
