Handling this vine with bare arms can cause a rash if you have sensitive skin.

The seedpods are very hard and should be picked when they start to turn brown and sealed in an envelope. They will explode and release two seeds when ripe.

This vine requires constant pruning to keep it inbounds.

Amazing to view this up close. The magenta is a bract. The resin gland is very sticky.
