I've been working to try and re-direct the grapevine away from my garden boxes into two seperate directions. One leads over the alley into a neighbors yard and the other goes towards the north end of the alley. This is an attempt to help expose more sun to my garden boxes and help tame the beast.
I've tried to tangle and weave them together to make one giant vine that crosses the alley like a bridge or trellis. The hopes is one day I'll be able to remove the support wood and it'll stand on its own. Something tells me that might be a while.
The 2nd support beam to the right is made of an old sunflower I grew 2 years ago. Still working strong as a garden tool. Recycle right. Somehow I don't think this alley will look this green in the heart of summer.
Tried something different here. I took all the very long leads of the vines and arranged them into a giant hoop or circle. In hopes of it holding its form into a weird unnatural shape. Here's hoping it works.
