Can anyone identify this vining plant?  Flowers are
pale yellow, about 1.5" across, doubled, pleasantly
fragrant; leaves opposite, about 2" long.  It grows
up, and then hangs down, with flowers on the hanging
portions of stems.

Hi Richard
Joe seems to have hit the nail on the head with this identification, but while I was visiting the site I did see one other pic (No. 1) which seemed to be looking for a name (Unknown Shrub in Fruit, National Arboreum, Washingon DC). if someone has not already identifed this for you, it is obviously a Clerodendrum and I think probably C, trichotomum, a Japanese native.
