I don't often come across Protea flower in garden. This I happened to see at client's plot on Thursday.

Protea is South Africa's national flower symbolizing the nation's beauty. It is an absolute beauty flower I must say.

Such a beautiful flower has a very poisonous side to it though. The nectar and seeds are poisonous, parts of the plants are said to cause irritation and pain if swallowed.

Wow beautiful!!
She is the kind of flower you can't see in Japan! The flowers that symbolize Africa are very tropical and beautiful! Does she smell good?

Thank you lots ☺, I suppose that's why countries are unique in their various ways. There might be some natural beauty Japan has that we don't have here in SA.

It really do smell nice, there's a fruity kind of smell to it.
