King Protea - in bud...
Just lent this to the RSPB for their migratory birds and landscapes display on South African plants.
It's the largest flowering protea, also known as unsuprisingly enough... Giant Protea! Also goes by the name of King Sugarbush. Will upload an image when it comes into flower!
