Momordica charantia .. thanks to scott.zona for the ID ! a weed... but a colorful one ! ..located in Central Florida US ..is invasive ..the 'orange lantern' seems to be either a seed pod / fruit ..tropical / warm weather... dies off after autumn ..will grow anywhere in one's yard.. ..digging roots out seems to slow progress, but if you miss one of those orange things.. tough ! ..haven't seen birds or squirrels around them ..the leaf in the foreground belongs to this vine.. 5 lobes, I think © All rights reserved
