Specimen plant. Screen plant or understory shrub.

While somewhat overly aggressive, it can be controlled. The author allows it to climb palm trees but pulls them off the tree to limit their size every 3-5 years. Climbs using tendrils with adhesive disks. Plant this vine where it has support and where its showy flowers are visible. Climbs with aerial roots which can damage brick and stucco, so best allowed to climb trees, poles, trellises and similar structures.

Border plant.  Also used for restoration.

Borders, foundation plantings, underplantings for trees and larger shrubs.
