Schultesianthus odoriferus
This plant is a woody vine or scrambling shrub native to Colombia. In Colombia, it grows in Andean forests at about 5,900 to 8,500 feet. The very fragrant yellow flowers have a long funnel-shaped tube that expands into five broad, spreading lobes. Brownish anthers on pale filaments surround a green stigma inside the flower. Its green leaves are leathery, with contrasting upper and lower surfaces. Photographed in the eastern Andes mountain range of Colombia.
