Yellow Shrimp Plant is a colorful tropical plant known for its upright clusters of bright golden-yellow bracts with small white flowers emerging between them. The unusual blooms resemble shrimp and provide months of eye-catching color during warm weather. Its flowers also attract hummingbirds and butterflies.

Yellow Shrimp Plant works beautifully in containers, tropical gardens, mixed flower beds, and shaded patios. In North Florida, it should be protected from freezing temperatures or grown in a container that can be moved indoors for winter.
