Cypress Vine

Photo from Powell Gardens, because I didn't take a picture of my grandma's. If you haven't been to Powell Gardens, check it out.

My Grandma has planted some Cypress Vine in your back yard. She has it growing up a trellis. I did a little research--this plant is a great attractor of hummingbirds and will grow up almost anything. It is also a quick spreader, so it takes a firm hand to keep it in check. I have neither a trellis nor a firm hand, but I am thinking about begging some seeds off my grandma to give it a try, anyway.
