It's a vine that grows to 25 feet, has snail-shaped flowers about 1 1/2 to 2 inches across, smells like a hyacinth, and blooms all summer. It's perennial in the tropics and annual in temperate regions. Hint: One of the common names includes the word 'snail.'

What is the name of this gorgeous plant?

You got it. Lovely, isn't it?

What a worthy specimen to add to a container and train up a fence, mailbox, or just hang out of a high pot.

Best,
