Special Harvest From The Gardens Of Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia

 



This trellis in Colonial Williamsburg is lush and leafy during the summer, providing shade from the sun. But, as fall approaches, the harvest is hanging heavy from the rafters.

  1. What ARE they? They look like gourds, but I think they grow out of the ground, not like this...these look like grape vines!

  2. Is there something better than those fruits hanging in the tree? Life is there.

  3. Beautiful photos, whatever these fruits are.
    This place looks like a vineyard to me but with different fruits, interesting though.
    Thanks for stopping by!

  8. I think we have used it for a container for water as well as when it is dried, you can make carvings and create a flower vase from it. (If I remember correctly). Brought back some childhood memories.
