I had a meeting at one of my company's other office locations yesterday, and when I pulled up, the landscapers were there, replacing the beds with fall plantings (e.g, mums and pansies). They do this every couple months, and in the process, a lot of beautiful, healthy, pricey plants get tossed in the trash. I'd just been there on Friday as well, and noticed several beautiful yellow hibs and thought, "any day now, they're gonna end up in the trash." I've managed to save a few elephant ears from certain doom with lucky timing this way, and yesterday, was lucky enough to snag the beautiful yellow hibs they had -- 7 in total. They look a little rough right now because they'd been out of the ground for a couple hours, but I got them home, in potting soil and watered as quickly as I could (even cutting my meeting short to get home to play plant-nurse that much faster).

Any ideas what variety these are? They're all the same, and have yellow blooms on them. They appear tropical vs. hardy.
