Saw this in town and just love it. It is grown where I don't thank anyone does anything to it and I love that kind of plant.

sorry I didn't realize just how lowsy that pic was. Lets see if this is any better. Otherwise I guess I will have to go and take NEW pics.

well a 'little' better.

I can't really tell but are the flowers maybe pink? If so, I can get you all you want fr Smock.
I planted a 1g when I lived in Katy & it has taken over his corner of the fence.
We call it a Desert Trumpet. It is a Podranea. Pink w/burgundy veins in the tubular flower.
I'll try to find it in the plant files.
If it is yellow or cream, I want some, please.
I just cut 4-6" pieces & dip in root simulator & stick in soil. Keep moist & propagation rate is 75%+.
LMK
We could share!

Looking back @ Pix #2 - you could cut those runners laying on the pavement & make 6-8 cuttings & try them. Surely, no one would be upset if you just trimmed them out of the street or parking lot.

It looks like an invasive trumpet vine....maybe this one. Careful they take over.

I'd let it invade my wooded acre & be prettier that the wild red ones that came with the property. lol

Talihina, OK

I would bet money it is trumpet vine and it is beautiful if you can keep it in the woodland
