This is the 4th picture in a series of photos taken with that peculiar bush at my great-grandparents’ home in Shenandoah,
Virginia.

That is a peculiar bush. Any guesses? Some of those leaves look dried and brown...almost like grape leaves of some varieties, but the bush has such densely situated leaves, that wouldn't be right...
ReplyDeleteIt looks like reader Carol solved the mystery!
DeleteIt looks like my "weeping mulberry bush"
ReplyDeleteThanks Carol! I think you're right.
DeleteIt does look like some kind of weeping plant. I wonder why it was featured in so many pictures. Hmm.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly was a dramatic-looking bush. My aunts must have had a thing for bushes - lots of other bush photos in the college scrapbooks too. Cracks me up ~
DeleteThat bush needs its own name!
ReplyDeleteYes, it does seem to have a life of its own, much like a character in a story.
DeleteWe had a bi-fold door in our childhood home that was the back drop for many photos, particularly prom photos. When we sold the house last year we actually thought about taking the door out first :-)
ReplyDeleteYou should have! What a memento that would be.
