| I hope I don't wear out my welcome here, but I have about five more plants that I would like help with. (I'm in a new-to-me house with a jungle of a garden, and I am trying to make some sense of it.
This vine has multiple stems twisted around one another and growing against a fence. Any ideas what it is?

| Wisteria, perhaps wisteria floribunda. |

| Campsis Radicans probably - kinda looks like it - your leaves look a little lighter than mine - maybe the lighting What part of VA are you in? |

| Yeah, I've grown both, taken me ages to get rid of the weed, campsis radicans. I reckon it's wisteria too. but if you haven't seen it flower you may have to wait till it drops all it's leaves in winter, and flowers (in spring). Long, hanging tubular flowers; blue, white, or even pink, should show it's wisteria, But send us a picture of the flower. |

| The leaves on Campsis radicans are toothed:

| Yes, that's true, toothed are campsis R., and the growth rate is much more vigorous than wisteria. |

| Hi, Most likely a Wisteria -- leaf attachment and shape are of Wisteria. Also, have a closer look at the fence itself -- Campsis tends to attach itself via aerial roots -- Wisteria doesn't. Regards, Ted |
