    there are lots of photos of Celosia and one that looks very similar to this one, but I'm not sure either if it is the same one. It's about the fourth photo down on the left. Hope this helps in identifying it.
    Thanks for introducing me to something I have never seen before.

  6. A lovely vibrant, hot pink. I think it's also known as cock's comb because it looks like the comb on the top of a rooster's head.
