The last picture of the plant was a little lame, so here's an arial veiw. Wow, climbing trees sure is tougher than it was when I was a kid. I guess that's not very relevant at the moment, since I just took the picture from an upstairs window.

All of the ends of the vines have been clipped off now to keep the plant from growing any bigger.

Bessie is hiding under the leaves to keep cool back where that bit of blue tarp is.
