It was only in recent years I learned that it was because the gate 'kisses' each side of the gateposts.

It likes paths and waste ground too and never grows where it's supposed to but always springs up unwanted right under my washing lines and behind the bins. Prefers dry cracks to growing in soil.<br />Looks like you got a smashing day for your walk.blueskyscotlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09373718369702364265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296862845552222054.post-45824217882692310282014-07-08T21:53:58.494+01:002014-07-08T21:53:58.494+01:00A cracking post Jim accompanied by great photos.
