Crossvine

This plant is native to the central and southern United States. It climbs without twining but does produce tendrils. Its long tubular flowers are red and yellow and frequently have a mocha fragrance. The leaves are dark green to almost purple and produced as opposite pairs with terminal tendrils. The vine often climbs very high, with leaves only remaining on the uppermost portion of the plant. Crossvine can spread aggressively through stolons.
