The easy and vigorous vine with the painful name! Mexican Flame Vine or Orange Glow Vine has attractive, almost velvety foliage with a few blunt teeth and a dark green color. The bright orange color stands out clearly against the foliage and this vine has plenty of bloom power! This vine is also called Senecio confusus but some enterprising taxonomists thought the tongue twister would be more fun!
