Stephanotis

I didn't even know this vine grew in Houston!  I was very surprised today when the guys brought this up from the back to sell!  I have used this flower in countless bridal bouquets over the years.  What a treat it is to have it growing where I can enjoy it longer than a cut flower!  I did some more research on the vine since I have not grown it myself:
