This plant showed up one day in one my pots. It's some sort of ivy with lots of tendrils for climbing. I've never seen it before. Does anyone know?Thanks for your help
Hoya
looks like a passion flower
Hi Alice. Does it have a horrible odor of you break some off? It sure looks like a stink weed to me. Very invasive if it is.
Doesn't look like Hoya to me. Leaves of 3, let them be...Poison Ivy comes to mind. Once, Stinging Nettle showed up at the front of my house, and the back, at the same time. Not knowing what it was, I grabbed it to pluck it out of my flower box and boy did it sting me. Always be careful with mysterious plants.

Not poison ivy, those leaves look like a little mitten
An ivy of some kind. Is it producing blooms? That's the easiest way to identify. I searched for 20 minutes and without a bloom, it's really hard to tell. Some variety of passion flower is my best guess - without seeing the flower...
Looks like poison ivy to me.
looks like climbing clematis
I found an ap you can download on your phone called PLANTSNAP. You take a pic of the plant through the ap and it will identify for you. It's not always accurate but may help you.
Double check the app. Be very careful. Schefflera delavayi is a plant or bush. Does not have tendrils and has more than three leaves.

Still looks like poison ivy. Has tendrils. Is a climber. Has three leaves. Can be a copy cat plant
