Guru - Love your "violet stargazer" venosa! Looks a bit darker purple than mine! Very pretty!!!

GardenQuilts - Thank you! I have a white vinyl privacy fence around my backyard and I grow all my vines up the fence with the use of a trellis mounted on the privacy fence. See my photo.

My favorite vine species is Morning Glory. I grow all kinds of Ipomoea nil MG cultivars. Many are Japanese cultivars and they also look smashing against that white fence. :-) Something about white really makes colorful blooms pop against the white background.
