This Wisteria has put on a show for me and the pictures are from 2014/2015 and you can see the weight of flowers and foliage has pulled the tree downwards. Left the photo a little late this year but i got a piccy before i cut off the flowers.

I love the 2014 photo.
I hate the 2015 photo - it looks sad, limp and defeated.

But now I've seen Rory's enhancements all I can see is a horse's head! :shock:

I have always thought it looks like a pistol shooting flowers. Oh well, we always see things differently. :whistle:
