Wisteria Season is On

Your Boulevardier noticed many fine wisteria vines in bloom on his walk earlier this morning. He did not walk Wisteria Street, but found large, attractive clumps of lavender flowers on Stanton Avenue and Somerset Avenue. This cluster is on the fence behind Lee's Nails, on Castro Valley Boulevard between Bank of the West and RyNck Auto Repair.



Also at bloom this time of year: potato vines, which look wonderful and give off a powerfully lovely scent.

Such are the things one sees, and smells, when one gets out of the car and walks our streets.
