Can this be

2.Cape huneysuckle


Very strange but it doesnt match with any of the above!!!


Tecoma capensis 


Could be Tecomella undullata of Bignoniaceae family
Please refer the link http://www.efloras.org/object_page.aspx?object_id=60137&flora_id=5


I think the id by … is correct. Thank you …
Here the leaves are compound and the same for Tecomella is simple.
Hence it cant be Tecomella undulata.


Thank you … and … for confirming the Id
