Since we are now into the dog days of August I thought we needed a new thread. I have no Gessie's in bloom right now so I'm beginning with a walk down memory lane. This is a beautiful yellow flowering columnea that I had for a couple of years. I have a couple still out on the deck that look awfully scraggly and this one may be one of them, Rasta being the other. They are still alive, barely. After looking at this picture I should go out and give them some TLC and see if I can save the poor things.

Anyhow ... this is (I think) Columnea "Carnival"
