First day of Fall, Already?!!!

The sweet potato vine that tried to take over the patio



Donya has become our resident patio gardener and filled many containers with flowers, vegetables and vines. One of the sweet potato vines went crazy this year. It shares a container with several other blooming plants, with a gnome statue residing IN the barrel next to the baby vine. Within 3 weeks we could not see the gnome, so he was but on the cement in front of the planter... a couple more weeks and he had to be moved forward.. then forward again. Soon he was 6 feet in front of the crazily growing vine.  Yup, he is still in there, somewhere. That is just one vine. I wonder if cuttings could be taken to use as starts for the next year patio plantings.
