Morning Glories: Love 'em and hate 'em. They are all over my yard and impossible to get rid of. If I am not out there pulling them up every week (which I'm not!) they overtake all of my plants and I swear they can grow several feet of new vines each day. Aw, aren't they pretty though? They're nothing like those ugly mean-looking weeds!
The reason I sorta like them is that I actually enjoy pulling them up when I have the time. Grabbing handfuls of twisted vines and yanking them out can be fun and therapeutic and it sure beats the prickly ones. The other reason I have mixed feelings is this...
I have several spots around my front porch where they somehow figure out how to grow right out of the walls up from under the house. This is below my front window on my porch. I have been meaning to pull it for a while now!
THEN, the other day as I was at the window looking out, I looked down, and it had managed to grow up BETWEEN my window and window sill to the INSIDE of my house! Grrr. How sneaky! But you have to respect them for it--that takes skill!
I am currently keeping an eye on this one...
...because as you can see, it is trying to sneak in the front door! (Maybe I oughta just pull it...)
P.S. This is my 100th post. Whoo Hoo!!
