I planted a package of what was suppsed to be Bleeding Hearts but what grew was some sort of Ivey. It grows really fast and if I don't trim it every other week it tries to take over some of the other plants. It has small leaves and huge deep purple flowers about 5 in. across bloom on it. Along the vine are the smallest yellow flowers. You almost can't see them.

At first I thought it was Kudzu but the flowers are wrong and they have little or no smell and Kudzu is very fragrant.

It's really pretty but I would like to know what it is.

  1. I'm confused, do you have two plants you are trying to figure out? You have a plant with small leaves and deep purple flowers and then one with small yellow flowers? You wouldn't have the purple and yellow flowers on one plant.

    Can you describe the size, shape and color of the leaves? The size, shape of the purple flowers (tubular, open, daisy-like, etc). The shape of the yellow flowers and the foliage of it? And....any photo you could post?!?! :)  :)  :)

    Thanks.

    EDIT: Okay you have me stumped. I do have one idea, do you think it could be some sort of Passiflora? There are a lot of them, look at these links to see an example:

    These are tropical plants and some produce the passion fruit, so that would explain the grape-like green things you are seeing...
