P is for pergola

Mt. View Cemetery has a wonderful old pergola on stone pillars near its entrance.  It supports an equally old wisteria vine that now entwines most of the pillars.  The flower display is incredible but I guess you'll have to take my word for it since I never remember to get a picture of it.  Sigh.  Linked to ABC Wednesday.

    Oh that is beautiful even without the flowers! Maybe next year you can catch it at the perfect moment. have a wisteria in my backyard. Sometimes it blooms, other times is doesn't. Go figure!

    Wow, impressive! I like the big, twisted roots. Looks like it's been there a very long time.

    Super. I guess this gives you a good reason to go back when flowering.
