Description
It's difficult to separate a cluster of flowers from the business of the vine, but this portrait finally does just that and shows what a wondrous design, so symmetrical and neat, this grouping has become. The flowers are chocolate scented so it's said. They do have a pleasant fragrance!

Thanks so much, Stefano for this feature in 10 Plus. Always wonderful to have a new showcase for an older work!

Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
Thanks, William. I finally had to prune the vine which was easier than I imagined. I'm obviously a goner for this beautiful plant! I agree that it's so beautiful!

wow so wonderfully beautiful.
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
My chocolate vine is quite exotic...originally from Korea, Japan and China....and of course, now in our back yard!

It was tough getting "in" there and seeing white space..!! I am very proud of this photograph....I had to work for it!

Beautiful work, Nancy! fv/l
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
Many thanks! I had to work to get this one isolated! The vine has become very thick!
Joyce Dickens
Outstanding detail and beautifully shot Nancy!!!
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
Thanks, Joyce. It's hard to pull just one image out because the unpruned vine is now quite full of itself!

Beautiful, Nancy.
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
Hard to believe these same pale pink and pale green flowers become that deep bright burgundy! Thanks, I'ina.

Many thanks, Boyd for including my photograph in Flower Mania as a feature. I'm delighted to have this chocolate vine flower find a new showcase.

Beautiful, Nancy! F
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
I have a slightly darker one of this and it was a toss up to know which to showcase. I considered these the baby flowers, so I went with light pink!
