Look out for seeds of Eccremocarpus, the Chilean Glory Vine; Rhodochiton, the Purple Bell Vine; Tropaeolum peregrinum, the Canary Creeper; Thunbergia alata, Black-eyed Susan; Asarina antirrhinifolia, the Twining Snapdragon; Ipomoea purpurea, the Morning Glory and Ipomoea lobata, the Spanish flag.
It is only the small spurs on the flowers that might make you correctly guess that Canary-bird vine is a nasturtium, Tropaeolum peregrinum, as it looks nothing like the ground-covering nasturtiums commonly planted.
