So many ideas! I can't wait to get back there and get to work! Today I'm pinching the co-op clems and seeing if they'll root, following directions from another thread.

To the left the ferns rule, to the right the ledge ends. Below are ferns and I think that's where the Virginia Creeper originates. It's a no-man's land there, under and behind a I'm slowly editing...
I did order a white integrifolia from Brushwood, to plant in the barrel and hope it would spill forward and down... Maybe I'd better wait and see if that works...

Sigh...
