Capture: Colour is the new black, in reply to Lilith __,
My ones were definitely red-orange on the ends. Perhaps because they received only a little sunlight in the morning? Thanks for the id though.
@Joe: It was a huge tangled mass of vines and flowers in a very sheltered spot. I'm glad I didn't take a cutting or seeds given your id. I have seen moonflower, giant white trumpets which open at night and are very scented, growing in Christchurch (for aesthetic reasons). But they attracted pests of the human sort so the owner removed them.

Oh okay: looking out the bathroom window of a funky old bach in the wilds of Banks Peninsula. Can anyone identify the flowers?

Words make my head busy but pictures such as this blog make my heart sing :-) Thank you.

I saw pictures of the "bright carmine" in a book on one of Prince Charlie's gardens; it was considered odd to actually plant them. I love monbretia: my wild backyard in Oriental Bay was covered in them and wilding agapathus in long grass running down the hill to huge mamaku by the rubbish bins.

Because I am deeply shallow, every time I read the headline to this post, the juke-box starts up:
They're counting the votes 2, 3, 4, 5,
I'm feeling fear my job's on th'line 6,7,8,9
I'm just wishing that all were mine
