Bittersweet
Posted on October 30, 2020 8:00 AM by Gerry Trout
 
This vine is growing in lots of places in the community.  It is Bittersweet, Celastrus scandens.  
 
Bittersweet is an aggressive climbing vine, sometimes reaching 50 feet.  It is very noticeable right now, because the yellow fruit is opening showing the red berries.  This one is just beginning to open, so I'll be watching it over the next couple weeks.  
 
I hope you see some Bittersweet in your travels.  It is so pretty.
 
HAPPY GARDENING!!!
