Bomarea Pink (species unidentified)

Native to tropical and subtropical America, these perennial herbs belong to the alstroemeria family. Many climb by twining stems and develop tuberous underground storage organs. Tubular or narrowly bell-shaped flowers grow in clusters at the ends of stems. Their leaf stalks twist so that the original upper surface of each leaf faces downward. Flowers have three outer sepals and three inner petals. Photographed in Colombia.
