'''''Streptosolen jamesonii''''', the '''marmalade bush''', is an [[evergreen]] [[shrub]] of the [[Solanaceae]] family that produces loose clusters of flowers gradually changing from yellow to red as they develop, resulting in an overall appearance resembling [[orange marmalade]] (thus the name). The sole member of its genus, it is found in open woodlands of [[Colombia]], [[Ecuador]], and [[Peru]].
The stems tend to be tall and slender, with an overall height of 1-2 meters (3-6 ft). The leaves are [[ovate]] to elliptic, green to dark green, with a pattern of fine wrinkles. The flowers have a slender tube 3-4 cm long, with spreading petal lobes. The blooms can appear nearly all year in mild-winter areas, but the heaviest flowering is from spring through fall.
