The only complaint I have about my zoo visit was the lack of plant identification tags. I am trying to identify this plant which was located in the zoo's tropical rainforest building. My best guess is that it is some type of Aphelandra! I'll let you know if I find the correct name...

Hi, Bill, Thanks for another beautiful picture! I have saved this one to use in my soon-to-be yellow and blue sunporch. Will fit right in with the new decor. Keep 'em comin'. They are really enjoyable!
