Hi Sueb - I'm not sure what this shrub is. The flowers look similar to those of the candlestick plant - Senna alata or cassia alata. Maybe someone will recognise it.

Bernieh:

Very beautiful! This red flowering plants are a Costus species...probably Costus speciosus - Crepe Ginger.

I grow Costus barbatus which looks very similar...however, it hates our hard water.
