Yeah, we used to drink the "honey" too. And snap the snapdragons. (sorry snap ) Made whistles out of blades of crabgrass.
What they have is more of a vine - they have it trained up a wire fence, but its smaller than I remember ours in Pittsburgh, the whole plant, the leaves and the flowers. Like I said, the kind we had in Pittsburgh, was growing all over a hillside, very much like (and probably mixed in with ivy) Also I seem to remember the flowers being more yellow out east - the ones down the street, I think are almost white.
