Wow.. its beautiful I find these in my college campus, and I have made a beautiful herbarium out of it. the way its leaves curls up... and the dried yellow shade of pink. <3 Awesome clicks.
I was given a start by a Quaker lady that later moved back to New Jersey. I Actually planted it and it is an excellent bee-keeper.
This vine has such pretty flowers but I don't know anyone that actually plants it...it just appears on it's own in our area. Did you plant it?
