    Default More Desert Eye Candy

    While out and about today I stopped to take pictures of a beautiful vine that thrives in the desert. It is called the 'Rosa De Montana' and can grow 30 feet in a single season. It blooms in early fall and then dies back until time to bloom again. It is very fragrant and attracts hundreds of honey bees. The bees were swarming all over it when I took the picture and if you look closely you can see the bees in one of the pictures.
