More unidentified flowers, this time from Aswan.
The photos are from pre digital camera times and are pretty fuzzy.
I hope you can help in identifying them

No garden but two balconies, one facing south and the other north.
Most of my plants are succulents which need little care

First is Petrea volubilis, in my opinion a superb climber.
Second is Ipomea fistulosa which is a large shrub, not a climber.
Last is Spatodea campanulta also known as the 'Tulip tree'.
