Bomarea

spotted at around 12000 ft of the tropical frorest of Ecuador.
Most occur in the Andes, but some occur well into Middle America. Several species are occasionally found as garden plants.

It is essentially a twining version of their relatives in Alstroemeria, though some species stand freely upright.

Perhaps the most fascinating — and telltale — morphological trait of most if not all Alstroemeriaceae is the fact that the leaves are resupinate: they twist from the base so that what appears to be the upper leaf surface is in fact the lower leaf surface.
