Re: Good grief...Revised


There was a bit of damage, after all. We have a large pothos  
[Epipremnum aureum] vine climbing a tall slash pine in the back yard.  
The vine is about the thickness of my wrist. There was a part of it  
that was 15 or so feet off the ground with several large [2-1/2 foot]  
leaves. That part of the vine got snapped off.

Here's a picture of part of what's left.

Yep, it's the same vine that's sold as a house plant up north. Given a  
chance, however, it really grows large.
