Thought someone might be interested. Looks like honeysuckle but what do I know?

The wide photos are sideways; this is growing up through a hole in the seal between the two parts of the window.

Edit: Also, ants are getting in through there. Is there anything I can repel them with that won't harm the plant?

Cool, we had a creeping vine or whatever they're called grow straight through the wall in three places where I work, too bad I had to remove it when mopping up after a downpour that decided to pay us a visit inside.

About your ant problem, this site may be able to help (http://www.ghorganics.com/page11.html), they seem to prefer the least poisonous methods, good luck.

Ooh, through the wall? Nice. I can imagine things being a lot more lush there without all this heat.

It's been a strange summer so far over here, we've had more rain than I can remember we've ever had before, but we've had as much sun as usual, so the plants are pretty happy, I think.:)

I can't explain why on Earth an outdoors plant would rather be inside than outside, but it seemed to do pretty well till I had to remove it that is.

Trumpet Creeper, Campsis radicans

I love those things. If I were you I'd let it move in.
