Re: Gourd

Look at it all you want...you'll probably SEE it grow before your eyes.  Be careful...it might take over your bougainvillea!!

ground and gave it a taut string from a ground staple to a 
bougainvillea vine 4 or 5 feet above it. It has embraced the string 
like a long-lost lover and is crawling upward at a rate of about 6 
inches per day. Male flowers are forming on the lower stem. This is 
exciting. If I look at it, will I slow it down? :)
