Is that a horse in your Avatar? What's the story?

It does look like what we call clematis in VA and they take over your yard, come back bigger and more invasive every year.

When I worked at a nearby large greenhouse ..this plant with not-shiney leaves was called a mandevilla. The shiney leafed one were dipladenias. Either way I'm sure they're very closely related.

It is a Mandevilla.
Some times they come back
but most times NOT.
They also come in yellow.

It is a MANDAVILLA I don't know its Latin name I have one in the dining room/plant room I finally bought the 8 inch pot on sale at the end of season 2yrs ago it still set me back $20 I bring it in for winter and she's about 5 ft tall now the blooms are big and beautiful and a scent is from Heaven The first time I saw them was outside Atlanta,Georgia as a privacy fence I water it when the dirt is dry down to the depth of 2 inches our winters in ohio are to severe to leave it outside so I just change her into a bigger pot to prevent her getting pot bound

Looks like a mandevilla to me.

I'm not sure, but I agree with you all, it looks like Mandevilla to me too. It is so beautiful.

That is a Mandevilla. I have one just like it and same color. It loves sun and water but not drowning. It will grow to 8 feet tall. Good luck with it. They are such beautiful plants!!!!! I wintered mine over by a window with a lot of light and in a room which was a steady 65 degrees. Only watered it once a week and not too soaking.

Could be a hybrid bougainvilla, although I've never seen one with such big leaves, but most definitely not trumpet vine. It does look tropical, doesn't it?
