Also known as coral plant, coral fountain plant, and fountainbush, this plant (Russelia equisetiformis) is a native of Mexico. It looks like a fountain of green stems covered in orange-red tubular flowers that cascade down in lengths as long as one meter (four feet). Flowers cover the plant from late spring until fall, but it can flower all year round in tropical and subtropical climates. You can usually see one of these plants in a pot outside of the Folklore Museum in Gavalochori.
