Bignonia capreolata.  I guess I would compare it to a more refined 
version of the more common (and aggressive) Campsis radicans (Trumpet 
vine).   I have a small cross vine that I've managed to keep alive on 
the south side of my house.  I am several zones north of where it is 
at home, but after mild winters (like the last), it surprises me with 
an mid-spring flush of blooms, although it only covers an area no 
more than 3 ft square.
