Trumpet Vine
I had been looking for quite awhile for a yellow trumpet vine. The red/orange ones are easy to find. A few years ago I found one (end of the season-on sale, to boot) and planted it by an arch we have that goes over a bench. This spring after years of waiting for it to bloom, part of the arch broke and started to buckle, but my trumpet vine finally triumphed! I could hardly believe my eyes when I saw the first flowers a week or so ago. Now we just have to transfer it all to the new, much stronger arch.

Update on the Homemade Fabric Releaser - Other postings I found did not include the unscented alcohol, just fabric softner and be sure to use distilled water.
