Salvia coccinea
Let's play the color game....RED!!
'Awapuhi!
Heliconia!
Costus woodsonii
Etlingera elatior
Japanese Maple
Old Fashioned Tall Red Penta
Christmas cactus
Epiphyllum!
I don't know the positive i.d. of this Passiflora, and it isn't currently blooming, but it did put forth a couple of blooms this spring, it is red and is in my yard:
When red starts to peter out we can start a new color LOL
Aphelandra tetragona
Bright red stems on Philodendron...oh darn what's its name???? Can't believe I forgot. I want to say quercifolium but I don't think that's correct
probably my fave bulbophyllum orchid
Gina, where might I buy an Aphelandra tetragona? That is a beautiful plant!
I know that Logees used to carry it, but I bought mine locally. It was actually at a little family owned grocery store here called Ward's Market that sells plants on their 'porch'.
In the past I have bought several unusual and sort of rare plants there for a very cheap price...philodendrons, bromeliads, alocasias, and some oddballs, like the Aphelandra
Will you get me one if I send you cost plus postage? I know it would have to go into the greenhouse this winter. PLMK
Here is nodding Hibiscus aka Malvaviscus penduliflorus - a hummer favorite!
The "nodding Hibiscus" is Malvaviscus arboreus.

Nepenthes!
I copied the botanical name for nodding Hibiscus from Floridata.com - guess they don't know what they're talking about!

Kay,
If I ever see one there again I could, but I haven;t seen another since I got mine. I'll see if I can root a cutting for you
You're a doll - I'd appreciate that!
Gina, I just discovered you're about 4 hours from me - I see a 'raid' in my future! LOL
Hi Kay,
Your plant is the 2nd one in that article:
