I live in SWFlorida and I have been growing both queens wreath and sky vine for five years and love them both. Earlier comments regarding the need for constant pruning of the sky vine are correct but if you have the time the resulting blooms are worth it. One plant covered an eight foot section 4 feet high of chainlink fence and provide a wonderful color display when in bloom and a nice green wall when not. I built a 4 foot ladder trellis for my queens wreath and planted on plant at each end. Within two years the woody vine climbed to the four foot top a spread out across the eight foot long ladder. It now blooms about every three to four months and it is the one plant that I have that everyone who sees it in bloom raves about. Two great plants either is great but the wreathed is a definate show stopper.

Nice idea!! I got a gift of fancy soaps that had shredded packaging material around the soaps! That will work too. Thanks for the idea. Jan

I'll throw in my 2 cents! The wreath is not grapevine as grapevine is rough & has those little tentacles & is a brown color. This is smooth & light. But will make great wreath, I agree the book should be at bottom with ruler across or under it & apple up at top- could you paint a green leaf on each, needs to look "more personal" for the kids, the star might look great with thin line of glue & gold glitter around edge of it. Would a wired ribbon be available in school colors. Could run it around under & between the items. Then a bow might not be needed. Kids are ones the wreath is aimed at so should be about their "stuff" Anyway maybe you can get idea or 2 from this & with rest of ladies you'll come up with a great wreath!! Jan
