Cypress vine aka Humingbird Vine

Our Garden

I bought a pack of seeds called Hummingbird Vine and planted them in three areas of the garden.
The plants soon started shooting up the fence and twining around other plants.
The foliage is so pretty, delicate and feathery and now it is producing these stunning little reddish-pink flowers,
though I am sure if a hummingbird landed on one it would break!
