the Grove is not a large place but the depth and variety of its visual appeal seem to be without limit.  it seems there's always something different, whether in a spot that's new or one already known to me.  it's always worthwhile to go back: light and season are always changing.

Hickory Road

across the way behind the Post Office stands a fence made up of wooden palings in some sections and iron frame and mesh in others.  it also serves as a trellis for vines that are interesting whether in or out of bloom.

a bit up the road, somewhere along the way as it dried this hydrangea started to look less like a flower and more like a pollinator.

I thought that those fruits looked familiar! That's one of the morning glories. I *think* it's Ipomea coccinea, but I'm not certain.
