Lee Anne,
The most common reference of fleece flower is Polygonum baldschuanicum
which is a little different than P. aubertii (silver lace vine). It is
a very hardy vine and has a similiar appearance to silver lace vine.
However, it has pink fragrant flowers that are larger and grow in large
drooping clusters.
Hope this helps,
Tom
