Delairea odorata

Delairea odorata is a climber within the family Asteraceae that is native to South Africa. One of the two species in the genus Delairea (the other being Delairea aparadensis), it was previously included in the genus Senecio as Senecio mikanioides. It is known as Cape ivy in some parts of the world (US) and German ivy in others (Britain, Ireland). Other names include parlor ivy and Italian ivy. It is a twining perennial, herbaceous plant that grows 3 metres (9.8 ft) tall. Its multi-lobed leaves somewhat resemble those of the unrelated English ivy. Originally used as an ornamental plant on trellises and as groundcover, it is now rarely cultivated because of its invasiveness, in addition to being a weed. Although it resembles Senecio tamoides, Open Tree of Life indicates that it is most closely related to species in the genus Curio, followed by Senecio angulatus....read more on Wikipedia.
