This vine is also known by various other names Port St Johns Creeper, Zimbabwe creeper etc.  These vines love the sun and come in a few shades of pink. The markings on the flowers look like fox gloves.

These woody vines are vigorous growers and are native to South Africa. These vines have attractive foliage and though the look like a bush, however they grow long  stems that arch and look like a vine. These pretty flowers can be seen blooming from February to November in sunny, tropical weather.

These can be propagated from cuttings and  seeds.  It is a common but attractive vine .

    • Are you taking about the Thunbergia Grandiflora you had once posted here? This is rather hard to propagate. I would loved it if it was as invasive as the thunbergia.
