129/130+: heather's

visited my friend, heather, today and enjoyed some of the beauty she has in her yard...  i couldn't choose which one i liked best, so i decided to post them all...  

Purple Shamrock, Oxalis regnellii

French or Spanish Lavender, Lavandula stoechas

[need to ask what this one is again]

Tall Bearded Iris sp.

Clematis sp.

(she is also the one who gave us the variegated periwinkle that has shown up a time or two.)

125: leaves of three

Poison Ivy, Toxicodendron radicans, growing on our fence.
ick. 

116: vetching

Common Vetch, Vicia sativa L.

99: wistful

Carpenter Bee (Xylocopa virginica) and Honey Bee (Apis sp.) on Wisteria sp.

96: heard it through the grapevine

leaf bud on Grape vine, Vitis sp.

31: wall climber

Euonymus fortunei 'Raulston's Gold' cultivar

10: mistaken identities

for several years we have assumed that these seedpods belonged to some Morning Glory vines, the bane of our existence in our garden area:

Honeyvine Milkweed, Ampelamus albidus

however, we apparently have two different vines~ Bindweed/Morning Glory and Milkweed, to which this pod belongs.

also, we thought the insect was a Box Elder Bug, but it is actually the very similarly colored Milkweed Bug.
