ID Please

This sure is pretty, but I am clueless about it's name or where it came from. Wasn't there last year! It's growing with the mandevilla.

Wow those are some interesting flowers. I would not mine having something like that just show up.

yes very cool. Hope someone knows

Maybe try posting it on the ID forum--I'm sure someone there will know it.

Okay! It's very pretty, the flowers are a little bigger than and 1/8". If I find out I'll post the name here.

wow!! It is so beautiful. Is it fragrant? Climbing oleander may be??

Bad news :(

DG Member JaxFLGardener has positively ID'd the vine.

It goes by Skunk Vine, Chinese Fever Vine, Paederia foetida (or also known as Paederia scandens).

"If the vine stinks when you rub the leaves, then it is surely Skunk Vine. Judging from the comments in the Plant Files, you may want to eliminate it from your yard immediately! Though it is pretty - it is a Class I Invasive in Florida."

It has been pulled up - we'll see if it comes back next year.
