Could I get some help here? This beautiful, vine-like plant was given to me by a friend, but neither of us know what it is. It was in the yard of an older house when she moved in and grows vociferously in Florida. Not that a rose by any other name would be any sweeter, but we would both appreciate knowing what we have.

I haven’t any idea, but what an old-fashioned, romantic looking flower. Very pretty.
Is it a bleeding heart?
Hmmm…maybe not. The leaves don’t quite look like it.
Whatever it is, it’s very pretty.
It looks like a fuschia to me!
I would say it’s a fuschia also!
That’s two votes for fushia. Nothing looks EXACTLY like mine, but fushia is probably closest. Thank you so much for dropping by and sharing your thoughts. I will call them fushia unless proven otherwise.
