Flamingo Flower

Also known as Justicia Carnea, the Flamingo Flower has bright pink long flowers that bring to mind a flamingo.

Unfortunately for me... I didn't realize this was a shady plant.  I have this one in full sun.  We'll see how it survives.  If it doesn't make it this year, I'll know better for next year and I definitely want another one.

It's perennial and "easy to grow."  I imagine that's contingent upon it being planted in the correct spot!  Oh boy....  Here's a picture:
