As of the last month I have a new volunteer vine growing on the North side Part sun / Part Shade close to my fence gate entrance. I've strung up fishing twine to give it a place to climb.

I have not been able to find a good source of vine leaf identifications.

Again I've scanned in the image of this leaf as close to actual size as possible. Though the new growth of leaves are smaller and a lighter green. This leaf was from the lower part of the vine.

Here is the link (I hope this one works) so you can view the leaf.

Thanks for letting me know if I should keep this volunteer or not. If I keep it, I'll need to know how to take care of it.

Thanks for all your help.

Thanks to Dragonfly. She emailed be a lighted up version of my scanned in leaf. So when you go to the link I posted above, go to the second photo and see the lighten version so you can see the viening of the leaf better for clearer identification

Thanks again Dragonfly!

You're welcome, and I hope someone can ID it for you. Is there any evidence of flowering on the vine? Or any kind of berries?

A member of the Convolvulaceae family (Morning Glory family).
It looks like a type of bindweed perhaps. But a photo of the flower would help.

Maybe it's the one known as bindweed that is a wild morning glory-type plant with smaller white or light pink flowers? Any flowers yet?
