Virginia Creeper
I've always liked this vine, but I know a lot of people don't. Some think it's very invasive and some even think it's poison (but it's not).
It has beautiful leaves that are absolutely gorgeous turning from a yellowish orange to a bright red this time of year.
I left it grow up the wall near the dovecote and love how it looks. I guess some people would call it a weed, but to me, it's a beautiful vine and I'm happy to have it in my garden.

This was the first year we had this vine "show up" in 3 different places. Once I knew what it was :-) and knew it wasn't going to eat me !, I was happy to have it spread it lovely leaves around.
This may be what's on the fence that I've been so afraid to get near, because I DID think it was poison ivy!

It does look pretty when it changes colors like this! Love your new header, Donna.
Virginia Creepers are beautiful vines in the right place. Yours looks delightful.
It looks great where it's located.
I have some in odd places in the garden.
Donna, Virginia Creeper is invasive but it sure is beautiful this time of year! We have a little in the woods next to our backyard and it is looking pretty gorgeous right now! Enjoy it while you can!
Well, I Like it too! Love the Fall colors of it!

Your dovecote is beautiful. I love Virginia creeper this time of year with the red leaves.
I also share your love and delight in the vintage suitcases AND the Virginia Creeper. My hubby is one of those that DOES NOT but I have managed to sneak a couple by him. ;)
