Any botanists here...

...who can tell me what this is? About three feet high. I´m told it´s locally called "Sangriento" in Ecuador but that name goes nowhere on google.

I can't help identify the plant, but just for fun I used Google images, too.

If you want to see all kinds of bloody movies, books, costumes -- that's the place.

I wanted access to health care, housing and education, but, no, I get potholes, trash and silicone tits instead. -Desi.

i tried looking it up also, but it did prove to be a tad more difficult than i anticipated.although im confident i found a place from which you could find the answer on your own. its a picture database of a lot of ecuadorian native plants, and i do mean a lot, i tried to look for it, but i gave up after a few minutes of clicking around and figuring out that there are thousands of pictures on there..... sorry dude i tried. happy hunting
