We played El Santiago golf course today and there is a house on there that has a beautiful climbing vine with bright orange flowers. Anyone know what it could be??

Could it be a trumpet vine? Or a hibiscus?

It definitely was not a hibiscus. I have one of those so I know what that looks like.
I'll look up trumpet vine. Thanks.

If they were clusters of small flowers and about inch and a half long leaves, could have been a Coral Honeysuckle - trumpet vine flowers are much bigger - probably around 6 inches or so.

I think you're right. I looked up honeysuckle and the orange honeysuckle looks like it.
Trumpet vine flowers too big. It was an amazing show of color and blooming like crazy even after the frost this week.

It is called a Cape Honeysickle, and Village Palms sells them. they are located on 466 near rolling acres road.

Thanks Travelguy. That's it! I know Village Palms because they did our side lanai and landscaping. Love them. I'll have to go get one. Thanks to everybody for helping me out.
