A picture in portrait format of a thin, red, twisted branch of the grape woodbine with three blue berries. Other branches and green leaves can be seen next to it. The colors are very lively, typical of a sunny autumn day.

@deborahh @dillyd I am not a native speaker, so looked it up on Wikipedia and chose one of several options. in Latin, it is called parthenocissus inserta.

@AnnaKukka @dillyd oh! I looked now in wikipedia and I see it can apply to various vines. Here in Ontario we do have honeysuckle vine, virginia creeper, and clematis virginiana.

It's interesting because I only knew it as the name of a local racetrack!

Edit and re-edit for typos 🤗 #dyslexic.

@deborahh
I also used to think of it as a place name - the street my best friend lived on - until I identified it in a plant photo one day.
