Plant identification

Can anyone please help me identify this indoor climbing plant . My mum was given three small cuttings a couple of years ago and this year one has flowered . It has a cluster of small pink jewel like tiny flowers that almost look false . Hopefully I can upload a photo . Thankyou

    Many, many years ago I had one at my parents house.

    Over the years I trained it through a wrought-iron arch by the dining room. It flowered now and then. I can't remember what happened to it.

    Your Mum is doing well with it by the look of it!

    All the best.
