Looks like Dekamaria, or Tekamaria, depending on your pronunciation of the Greek. It is quite a hardy, bushy plant, comes in yellow, red or orange flower colours. I have a line of them in all colours they form ahedge. You can prune them or just let them bush out, depending on how much space you have.

Thanks for that. We have them as a hedge as well and full of flowers now. Beautiful. Couldn't remember the name though. Thanks again.
They are known in different names: Bignonia Capensis or Tecomaria Capensis or Cape Honeysuckle. Learned something today
