Complete!

I have a grape vine that loves to grow! It grew up into a nearby tree (and by up, I mean about 30 feet up!), and also grew over the block wall into the neighbor's yard... it needed a strong structure in MY yard to grow on. (just so you know, my daughter calls it 'the grape on steroids'). So, I built a pergola for it. It's about 8' tall, the top is about 8' across, and it has PVC trellis work going up the sides (for the grape to hook onto). I removed (water sucking) lawn to put this in, and put a paver/bark walkway under it. I then planted star jasmine (for the lovely fragrance) and bright red geraniums on the side opposite the grape.
