Vine identification

6 years ago

Any idea what this is? Could be a weed? I don't know.. I think I planted something in that region of my flower box with my little mahogany trees a while back but for the life of me I cant remember. The only climbing vine seeds I have (I think, I have many seeds) is a Trumpet Vine and I don't think that's it. The leaves don't match. If it is a weed that's fine but I don't want to pull it unless I know for sure. It's actually growing about 6 inches, a day (the only reason why I think its a weed, ha! ) and is wrapping around my wooden plant gazebo pretty nicely. LOL. It actually resembles a grape vine when I try to research it online

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

need kiwi vine identification

Thank you for the confirmation. I've been looking about for a male for the arguta and a female for the kolomitka but haven't yet found them. In the meantime, I did pick up a pair of fuzzy kiwis at Lowes today (pollinator is Tomuri). Then I read on a website "The fuzzy kiwi male is the best pollinator and can pollinate the fuzzy or arguta female. The arguta male can pollinate the arguta or fuzzy female because bloom times partially overlap." Is this true? Can I just plant the Tomuri near the arguta females (I have 2) and it will serve as a reliable pollinator for them and the fuzzy female??

The first one needs more than a single flower, I think. Can you add leaf and vine and flower cluster photos? Trumpet vine is possible as is the related crossvine, I think, but see the link below to get more expert eyeballs on the problem. Second one definitely isn't poison ivy (I have lots of experience with it!), and actually looks more shrub-like than vine-like to me, but I have little expertise in southern plants. A great place to get plants IDed is on Garden Web's Name that Plant forum, which gets more traffic than this forum.

It is a native passionflower commonly referred to by some locals as maypops or as purple passionflower. Passiflora incarnata. Native in more northern and eastern parts of the state. I'm not sure how well it does in western OK and southcentral through southwestern OK. I'm in southcentral OK and never have seen it growing in the wild here, but people do plant it in improved soil and keep it happy with irrigation in our hot, dry summers down here.

I don't know what it is but it appears to be a soft growth plant ie an annual or perennial rather than a woody subject. It has the appearance of something in the Cucurbitaceae.
