Senecio confusus, commonly known as Mexican Flame Vine, is an evergreen, fast-growing vine native to Mexico. It can reach lengths of up to 10 feet (3 meters) and is known for its bright orange, daisy-like flowers that bloom profusely from late winter to spring, attracting butterflies and hummingbirds. The vine has a twining habit and features small, oval, green leaves.

Mexican Flame Vine is valued for its vibrant flowers and rapid growth, making it an excellent choice for covering fences, trellises, and arbors. It is also used in butterfly gardens due to its attractiveness to pollinators. This vine thrives in well-draining soil, rich in organic matter, and requires regular watering, especially during hot, dry periods. It prefers full sun to partial shade and can be pruned back in late winter to maintain shape and promote vigorous new growth. While generally pest-free, it can occasionally suffer from aphids or whiteflies.CC BY-SA 4.0
