The yellow flowers are more common here. These pink flowers only grow in fresh temperatures.

Aleyna,
I love this vine...it is widely grown in Southern California. I used to grown it also at one time. It's called Podranea ricasoliana - Pink Trumpet Vine from tropical Africa. I know when I grew it...it grew extremely fast.

or maybe just post them and avoid trying to identify it... lol!

Aleyna:
Don't be embarrassed! You got the name correct...it's called Pink Trumpet Vine. You're doing very well identifying your posted plants.

Hey Janey, can't you raise those where you live now?
I know your feeling about flowers from a place you've lived once... every june when tulips start appearing in the flowers market i feel my heart tight... and a huge missing of Chicago and the tulips in the spring.
