This is a Heliconia. There are a lot of cultivars! Heliconia psittacorum x spathocircinata 'Yellow Parrot' looks very similar but I'm no expert. This site has photos of various cultivars that I found the 'Yellow Parrot' on: http://www.heliconiasocietypr.org/heliconia_cultivars5.htm This is the fifth page of 7. Good luck!
