growing wild | Walter Reeves: The Georgia Gardener

Name that plant

These flowers seem to be growing wild along the fence. My sister and I think they are very pretty but we don’t know what they are.

Agree with Witchazel of the top one. The second one looks like the Rangoon creeper (Combretum indicum syn. Quisqualis indinca). Check it out and see if you have a match. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combretum_indicum
