I have mentioned this bush before.
It separates the parking area of Santa Barbara Mission, from the picnic area and Stations of the Cross.
I have never in my life seen anything so...uh...orange.
Being we had a few moments, I went over and took a few photos of the plant, hoping upon hope that I could find it on Google Images.
It took a bit, but here it is: Thunbergia gregorii - Orange Clock Vine .
They planted it on every chain link fence, that rings the area and so it is quite striking.
You have to control it, because it can become invasive easily...but that is part of what makes it so beautiful.
I don't plan on buying one, but I do enjoy looking at it.
