What vine (it looks like an ivy vine) has a green nut looking thing growing on it?

this vine is growing on a pine tree in our yard. The vine has leafs that looks like an ivy vine and the nut thing kinda looks like a cactus.

What vine (it looks like an ivy vine) has a green nut looking thing growing on it?
THe trumpet vine which had orange flowers shaped like a horn has a big green pod that grows on some of them. It looks more like a big fat bean or pea pod than a nut but it is very hard like a nut.

Reply:My moonflower vine produces huge nut looking things but are actually pods containing the seed. You can open them and you have yourself seeds to plant for next Spring. All vines produce nut looking pods that contain seeds. If you want to save them, you can, or just let them drop to the ground. You will continue to have the vine that way. Just beware of three leaved vines. (poison ivy or poison oak. Hope I helped.
Reply:It's so hard to describe plants, isn't it.





Cut a runner with the bloom and pod on it and take it to a nursery. They should be able to help you identify it. Go to a large nursery.
Reply:If you did not plant it there then it is most likely a wild cucumber, When you open the nut like pod if it looks like folded lace inside and the pod id a little prickly then is is most definitely a wild cucumber
Reply:This vine i have discovered growing in my yard as well.. I have identified it as: Sicoyos angulatus L... also known as Bur Cucumber.. native to the united states...
