The leaves of Ipomoea quamoclit
http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showima...
are very fine , in contradistinction to the leaves of
Ipomoea sloteri
http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showima...
which are of a much broader nature.

Cypress vine is the common name of Ipomoea quamoclit.

This is Ipomoea sloteri, not quamoclit. I. quamoclit has star flowers and more feathery leaves.
