Coral vine is related to the Florida sea grape and is native to Tropical America. Seen over all of the state, coral vine is a favorite for its showy flowers seen mostly in summer and fall, but can have some blooms anytime in South Florida.

Coral vine climbs on tendrils and has interesting heart-shaped leaves. Plant in full sun in most any soil. Water to establish, prune to control. Best used to run up supports as in the picture. It is a carefree vine to own.
