Does anyone know about this plant? I saw it here in town and just had to get a cutting. The mother plant is about 5' high and maybe half that wide, has very broad leaves that are yellow with green stripes. Grows like a croton but much faster. One day I noticed something was different about it and stoped the car and got out and it had orange hibiscus like flowers on it about 3" in diameter. What a beautiful plant, yellow and green with deep orange flowers. I used a rooting hormone on the cutting and now its growing like crazy. That was just a month ago. I took my "prize" up the the county extension and they ID it for me. Wondering if anyone has one or has worked with one. Will try to get a picture this weekend.
