Strange fruited climber

Does anyone know what this strange-fruited climber is - somewhere near Sparta in August?

Tiggrx has identified this: This is Gomphocarpus fruticosus (Bristle-fruited Silkweed) a member of the Milkweed family native to South Africa. It is naturalised throughout the Mediterranean region.

Thanks. I'll be putting up some Basque plants when I get the time - shall appreciate comments ....
