Joelle is yours in a hanging basket? Either way it looks great. A bunch of us found out last year that the ants are the main pollinators of this vine. I can't remember who but someone here was hand pollinating theirs. My vine was to high for me to see what what pollinating it. I have propagated them from cuttings but I find seeds so much easier. I use semi ripe woody cuttings when I do propagate.

There are still remants of my vine from last year still on the antenna. I haven't gotten nasty enough to get DH up on the ladder again to remove it. I will try to remember to get a pic tommorrow of this years vine under control.

Here is last years. Now the antenna it is growing on is above the house and the whoe top of the antenna was covered.
