I really like what you did with the arbor by making it a bit of an architectural element of your home. I wanted to do that over our back porch which gets too much sun to be comfortable to hang out on in midsummer. Once the bines get all up and over that it's going to be really magical. And then you make beer with it. Brilliant.
Yea, and that was the easiest way to sell it to the wife on growing them. She wasn't too keen on the idea of 20ft poles with twine coming down and just tall vines growing up them.
