    This is probably an easy one - Flower found in southern Gauatemala. Could someone please tell me what it is?
    Thank you,

    The common name is Monkey Cups. Can't remember the scientific name now. Gnnnn. I hate it when that happens! It's a common garden plant.

    That's why common names are confusing. Latin all the way!! Hopefully lorax will remember the latin name for you.
