Cats Claw Vine
CAT'S CLAW VINE
Macfadyena unguis-cati

This beautiful vine is known to love the heat, and therefore, can be trained to cover structures that may get relatively hot such as southern or western facing walls. This vine is such a vigorous grower in fact, that it has been known to invade the crowns of trees or cover houses if not maintained.
