Vines Saignon

This vine ,which seems to grow all over Saignon, seems like a close relative of a vine that thrives in our area of Florida, called Trumpet vine. Beautiful leaves, bright orange/red flowers and a fast pace of growth.

Too fast some say. It is seen as an invasive plant by many a gardener. Provence seems the perfect place for it as the winters there would prune it back.

This example covers a wall in Saignon and lights up the area.

The lower picture is of the French vine and the upper is a picture from the internet of the American plant called a trumpet vine.

Close but the leaves say it's not the same plant.
