Virginia Creeper Taking Over an Old Silo

[Douglas Sherman]

Virginia Creeper is a very aggressive vine that typically winds itself around trees. In the fall it turns a brilliant red color. Here, the vine has completely covered an old silo from top to bottom.

Love it! That goes well with the vine covered barn I found!

Looks pretty much like full possession to me. Beautiful sight - as long as you aren't the owner trying to keep the structure intact

 

[JimFox]

Wow! That’s amazing how it has covered the whole silo!

That's a very colorful silo - I would be tempted to take a picture too! I wonder how long it took the vine to take it over to this extent.

Maybe we should blend them together, Dan.

I first spotted this more then twenty years ago, Amy and it was petty well covered then. I never took an image of it but this was too good to pass up.

It certainly is, Monika.

It is amazing, Jim. My eyes almost popped out when I saw it

I think he abandoned this years ago.
