Trying to analyse images of flower of Rhamphicarpa longifolia on the net I
notice that corolla seems to imperfectly bilipped in Rhamphicarpa with
3-lobed lip having middle lobe not reaching more than half of the lip,
whereas in T. fragrans the corolla lobes seem to be somewhat equally
divided. On that count I go with Thunbergia fragrans. Also leaves in in
background also suggest Thunbergia.
