Thanks Billy! I've always loved that vine along the highway. Maybe one of our local historians can let us know who had that property before the highway grew there.

Didn't Edhat do a piece about that bit of wisteria - front garden of a former farm? I like to look for it - very vivid (good of CalTrans to leave it)

I've watched that vine on the highway move up from Los Positas towards La Cumbre for 35 years, hoping every spring it would still be there. I bet when they tore down the houses to build the freeway, it was a survivor.

Up in Arroyo Grande, there is a 'moving' wisteria at the Shell station near the freeway on-ramp at Grand Ave. Every spring it moves a bit farther west along the Caltrans ROW fence. I hope our CT section chief is like-minded about it. I like the cultivar 'Cooke's Purple' because, up here at least, it will often rebloom in mid summer or early fall. I understand neglect is the best care for wisteria. I've never had one for lack of a strudy enough support structure. I've seen it twist 2x4's like pretzels.
