Balloon Vine (Cardiospermum grandiflorum)
Balloon vine is a perennial, slightly woody climber that easily clambers up tall trees six metres or higher. It often drapes itself over entire mature trees. Stems are covered with bristly hairsand the bright green leaves are strongly serrated. From October to January the vines are covered in white or yellow, fragrant flowers followed by inflated fruit capsules which start green and eventually turn brown (not unlike the Cape Goosebery).
