Besleria solanoides stem ringed by dense clusters of bright orange, tubular flowers emerging at the leaf axils, with green young buds packed between whorled blooms against glossy dark foliage
Besleria solanoides

A shrub native to the montane forests of Panama, Costa Rica, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru, Besleria solanoides grows in humid cloud forest habitats. The plant produces upright stems with flowers arranged in dense whorls at the leaf axils, often forming stacked rings of blooms along the stem. Each flower is a slender, tubular corolla in a vivid orange hue, well-suited for pollination by hummingbirds, and is accompanied by developing green buds that progress into fruit. Photographed in Ecuador.
