vine I.D. please

13 years ago

I have a vine growing rapidly in a pot that my sister gave me seeds from Fla. She says it has a lipstick plant-like flower? The leaves are about 2in. or so, very finger-like, in a fan shape. She said after flowering they will get pods, the seeds she gave me were small black seeds. If you could give me some ideas i could do some research, or I could try and send a picture.

thanks!

Yes, we need a picture of leaves and flowers and the whole plant.

I found it, it's cardinal vine, i think another name cypress vine. Red flowers, maybe hummingbird vine but that name seems to cover a lot of vines in this category. Anyone have one? And I'm not sure my sister mentioned pods or not, but I'll keep my eye out for seeds for sure. I hope it blooms soon so I can get some seeds, summer will be winding down soon, although..90 degrees today thru Wednesday!!
