tabasco, Won't you want flowers from these vines? Wouldn't that be the point? I hope that you will get flowers from them.

Yes we are west of Lake Tahoe and southest of Placerville and about an hour and a half from Sacramento, which is the largest nearby city, though the town of Placerville has become a city since I moved up here. I was hoping for a sleepy little town there, and instead it has all the accutremnents of a large city with violent crime and drugs as well. I suppose there is no escaping, but I lived in SoCal for most of my life and wanted to "get back to nature", and are pretty much there where we live....but the city and city ways are looming ever so close. What used to be farm land is in many cases now vineyards owned by "fat cats" moving up here from the bay area (SF). They sell there million $$ homes in SF and buy a pretty large piece of property here...and you must know the rest of the story. I have wanted to live in the "country" for my whole life. My mother moved here first, and then she was seriously ill, and wanted me to move near her, and she did need my help. So, I did, and now I am married and living in a log cabin in the woods!

So, now you know my story...tell me yours...
