Ipomoea tricolor? leaf shape and smudge of blue at the top.
Or maybe hbwr?
I didn't know you got orb weavers over there. Awesome critters.

Sucks, but AU-OS trade isn't cost effective or reliable anymore. Aussie trade encouraged, especially for cactus, dragonfruit, and colour fruited columns.

Hi Gator!  I can only see the pics in a cartoon like format, are they meant to be that way? Im guessing my bad basic version of windows isnt set up to get the pics properly.
Orbs are awesome.

Cheers

The pic was taken w/ a distorted filter, as I couldn't seem to get a clear shot. I guess it's meant to be artsy :) The plant in the background is B.Caapi

It's about 4 years old. The base is as round as a baseball.
