Cape Honeysuckle (Tecomaria capensis) in the Japanese Garden.

The image was inadvertently darkened a little too much during capture so it had need to be brightened up quite a bit in post before the insides of the flowers were visible enough. Thankfully, there wasn't any noise penalty.

Tecoma hedge

Not as common as they were when they surrounded my grandparents’ house. My granddad kept a perfect 45-degree bevel on the hedges when I was little, and then when he got beyond clipping them himself he used to oversee my dad’s efforts with the shears.
