ID Help Host flower for Giant Hummingbird (1 Viewer)

[Paul Tavares]

When we were in Peru last month we saw several giant hummingbirds in a few areas. They were all feeding off of this species of flower. I haven't been able to identify it. Anyone know the species>

Thanks in advance

It looks like a Mutisia of some sort.

I think John's correct. Mutisia acuminata seems plausible from Google images.

Thank you both. That seems to be the one. Nothing close came up on my searches. Thanks for the help.
