Poppysue that looks like a wild vine we have growing all beside the roads here. I have Cardinal vines which the flower looks the same but a different leaf.

It probably is the same sugar_fl. I've read these can be invasive. There are two types - one has a lobed leaf and one has a heart shaped leaf. This is the heart-shaped variety. I planted it in a container with a mini-blue glory. They both are pretty vigorous and have covered their teepee + another three feet. The orange glory is just starting to put out flowers.

The ones here have heart shaped leaves. There is none on the farm but a lot right down the road.
