Found this unique climber at the Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park.

It was very hard to get a good angle for a shot of this flower, I have never seen one before.

Here is a description of the flower:

Aristolochia gigantea "Pelican Flower" An amazing tropical climber that inspires a sense of awe in all that behold its beauty. Even in partial sun, this Brazilian vine displays large, heart-shaped leaves and unique flowers. Ivory veining against a burgundy velvet background with long tubular flowers reminds us of its coined name"Dutchman’s Pipes." Hardy to Zone 10 and higher for outdoors. Full or partial sun, grows to 1-3’ in container, minimum temperature 50° indoors, vining in habit, blooms in spring, summer and fall. Great for a hanging basket! Fragrant!

Thank you in advance for your comments, and hope your day has been good.
