Gardeners’ Forum: “climbing foxtail?”

Posted by GR Pool on Wednesday, May 6, 2009 10:12 AM ADTIs there such a thing as a climbing foxtail? I have a photo from 1949 of a plant outside our home and want to re-introduce some of the original plants. The photo shows a climbing vine with a woman standing next to flower sprays that are about 3-4 feet in length. The photo says that it is "mother with her huge foxtail, Autumn, 1949". The climber may be another plant, perhaps a Dutchman's Pipe, but there are other leaves near the flowers that are long lobe-shaped leaves unlike the Dutchman's Pipe. Any ideas what it is? I could sent a photo if you have an idea. G R Pool
