Isotrema macrophyllum

Dutchmans pipe (Aristolochia macrophylla)

This vine really shines in part-sun to shady areas. The flowers resemble a pipe, lending the plant its common name. For a shade-tolerant vine, Isotrema is hard to beat, and has the advantage of supporting the pipevine swallowtail butterfly.
