Not certain, but the flowers look like Celosia.

 

I agree with Kay...I am guessing the dwarf Celosia cristata, which comes in several colours.

The very first time that I saw a Celosia was in the marvelous Generalife gardens (part of the Alhambra complex) in Granada, Spain. They were the tall ones and were bright red. I was amazed--they were slender and not ball-shaped like these.

 

Yep, I was thinkin' cockscomb too

 

Yep... cockscomb. I never saw a yellow that lovely though!
