Default is this Parrot Flower? No?

Not at all like "Wishbone Flower" Torenia.

Look again and you will see the attachment of the calyx and spur typical of
Impatiens.

Your plant is a species of Impatiens.

There are many different species of Impatiens. Without knowing the origin

Hi,

I came across a few images of an exotic flower identified as "Parrot
Flower"

You can view those images in at the following links ...

Now, I searched using the keyword "parrot flower" but I am only getting
details about a certain (different) flower called the "Heliconia
humilis / Heliconia psittacorum"

I desperately need details about the flower shown in the images.

Kindly let me know if you have any links or info on the same.

Thanks a lot in advance.
