Pandorea pandorana, commonly known as Wonga Wonga Vine or Wonga Vine, is a vigorous Australian native woody climber with twining stems that can reach 10 m or more, featuring distinctive fawn-coloured bark. It adds height, texture, and a cascading display of flowers to gardens, trellises, pergolas, fences, and screening structures.

The leaves are compound and opposite, imparipinnate with an odd number of leaflets and a single terminal leaflet. In mature plants, leaves reach up to 16 cm long, with 5–9 leaflets each up to 8 cm long and 3 cm wide, lanceolate to ovate with a small mucro and entire margins, dark to mid-green in colour. Juvenile leaves are particularly striking, up to 8 cm long with 15–17 small, toothed leaflets approximately 1 × 1 cm.

Flowers are tubular, 2 cm long, creamy white with brown or purple markings in the throat, and are produced in thryses or racemes at terminal ends or upper leaf axils. Flowering is profuse and eye-catching in spring, with blooms held in large terminal clusters that attract birds and insects.
