A quick one.

In the interest of actually updating from time to time, I bring you... THE BAMBOO SCAFFOLDING FIASCO!

So I have this vine, which is a very lovely passion flower vine, which is NOT supposed to be an indoor vine, due to its ridiculous rate of growth during the summer. Last year it grew about 12 feet in two months, and I kept having to tie strings to various parts of my ceiling to allow its continued growth. As my ceiling is very high and I don't have a ladder or enjoy heights, I decided that before we get too far into this year's growing season I'd build it something more low-maintenance to grow on. Something made of cheap and easy-to-locate materials. Something like... a grid made of string and bamboo.

Now, on to photos before this gets any more lack-luster:


The vine, looking a bit wistful. Yes, wistful.


Very basic materials. You get no process shots. This is good enough for the likes of you.


And it's done, as if by cooking show magic!
