I guess “a plant” would be too vague.

I posted the above at 4:30 am, and then I went back to sleep.

Do you know I dreamed of that plant?

Something viney...could be anything. Morning Glory?

Yes, "plant" is too vague.

Viney, yes. Morning glory, no.

stupid okra?

I don't even know if it's a vine, but it IS a recurring theme.

My Indian employers are always feeding me. One night it was a bowl of Bhindi Masala. One taste of that will change anyone's mind about okra.

How edible does it have to be? The flowers remind me of honeysuckle.

Not honeysuckle. The spring shoots and fall berries are both edible. And tasty. Just had some shoots today.

You Southerners and your fancy flowering things.

Is it bindweed? Isn't that a noxious plant? Or at least a gardener's nightmare?
