Parrot Plant

This is a very interesting and colourful plant, currently growing very well in good light in the Shower Room. Sorry I'm not sure of it's botanical name - perhaps one of you could help me there?

Thank you Paul and Junna. I bought this at our Harvest Supper Auction a couple of years ago. I think I paid less than £1 for it - and the flowers are so unusual and like you say Junna it looks like a bird - a Parrot bird!
