It had entirely covered a 5-foot tall by 4-foot wide older Mugho Pine...

In 32 years here, have never seen it before.

Thanks for any help.

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

That's origanum (oregano) of some sort. 😀

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Oregano????????

Jeez, I looked up on Google Image and it doesn't look like anything there.

This vine's like an invasion from outer space...if it's Oregano, no wonder there's so much in spaghetti sauce 😆 😆

Anyone else????

Humulus lupulus (hops vine) ... you might want to make some beer 😆

Cheers, Barrie.

THAT'S IT (yup, I'm yelling!)

Holy cow...if it can nearly kill/cover a big old Mugho Pine.

Strange that in 32 years here, I've never seen it before but someone said the area used to grow hops.

Tip o' the hat to Barrie.
Thanks.

Now come and get the bloody stuff....please.

Beer, huh? 8) 8)

Hey Aaron,
the flowers did look very similar to your Oregano idea.
Thanks!

It's kind of funny. I kept thinking to myself, where are the little purple flowers. 😆
