Hi Mike.  It looks like an Allamanda or a Maurandia.  Both are in
Apocynaceae (Milkweed Family) and both are common garden plants in the
tropics and southern California.  Maurandias have been available in recent
years mass-marketed in garden centers all over the country as
"temperennials."  Both plants contain species of scrambling or twining vines
or vine-like shrubs.  Allamandas tend more to the yellow, so I think this is
some hybrid Allamanda.  Maurandias are usually pink or red.
