| Longwood, I think D is a quisqualis- the double rangoon creeper. Could B be some type of combretum? |

| The first pic looks like a Gomphocarpus physocarpus (Hairy balls, Family Jewels). A type of asclepias. Karyn |

| hi. the one with red and pink flowers is rangoon creeper Quisqualis indica. it's a very vigorous vine. it's one of my favorites. the double form grows much slower. we have both here at naples botanical garden. |
|
| The second one also looks to me like a combretium. The third one is the Texas umbrella tree or Melia azederach. |
