    I was getting confused by the vine with alternate leaves on the right side of the photo.
    This has opposite leaves and is a vine, is that right. It looks so familiar, but nothing similar is coming up anywhere for me. That calyx looks pretty distinctive, rules out lots of tubular flowers.

    Thank you. It's a mystery.
