Orange flowers in clusters that cover the entire plant at the end of the rainy season and beginning of the dry season extending into December and January.
It grows in hot sun and likes abandoned houses and house lots.
From my patio. These photos are at the very end of the blooming season and do not show the plant to its best advantage. It is common in Querétaro and is considered by some to be a weed, but it is really gorgeous when at its peak. Trumpet vine jumps to my mind, but it probably is something else.

Pyrostegia venusta
Common name: Llamarada
Hi trwheaton, This looks like Orange trumpet vine (Pyrostegia venusta).
Beautiful self portrait!!
I do not want to dampen your enthusiasm, but I'm from Georgia, and I know honeysuckle. This is not honeysuckle. The flowers are too large, they are the wrong shape and color, and the leaves are not right. Any other suggestions?
i think they are honeysuckle
