    When I originally got this plant in the silent auction from a church bazaar last year, I was told it was a Yellow Trumpet Vine. It definitely has yellow trumpet-shaped flowers... but not a vine.
    Ooops... I planted it next to the archway hoping it would climb all over it.
    I've been noticing others like it around town.
    Anybody knows it's real name?

    That is pretty. Does it have a fragrance? :)

    Ding Ding Ding! Jane hit right on the head!
    Esperanza Gold Star it is.
    I'll rename my photos now so I don't forget.
    Thanks Jane.
