I'm still trying to ID this plant. I think my last try got lost as
I foolishly forgot to attach the url until Anne reminded me.
Trouble is, I can't remember where we took this.

This annoys me. I have seen that flower form before, but didn't
like the plant, and can't remember what it was. This is a much
nicer plant.
My best bet is one of the Caprifoliaceae, either Leycesteria or
a close relative. I have tried to find a picture of L. crocothyrsos
in flower on the Web, and failed dismally, but suspect it is not
that.

For an image see he

I wondered if it could be a member of the Acanthaceae.
Don't think that's it, Jeff. I've emailed David Poole to see if he can id
it.
