Beautiful colours - love the shiny leaf. (I have discovered that I am having some technical problems on sb.com and am not getting notifications of your posts in my email.)
Nah it's a Croton. They have a large variety of colors and leave shapes. These grow really well over in our part of Australia. The Protea flower is kinda cone shape and looks something like a toilet brush.
Delores must be right; the name croton came into my mind before I even saw her post! Even the plants in there were fabulous, weren't they? So lush and healthy...I used to have a lot more plants before I had cats or Buddy...
Check out all those colors! Very beautiful! Back in the day...lol...I had a whole house full of plants! Eventually had to pick between my cats or the plants!
I used to have one, but that was years ago...it was a houseplant and grew quite big; loved the multi coloured leaves...but cannot recall the name!! But it is definitely not a protea...which is an exotic flower that is beyond gorgeous!!!! Another fabulous shot!
Think this is called a protea but not sure. Only that I have to take a photo every time I see one...lol! This was taken at the Butterfly Conservatory in Niagara Falls. Thank you for looking! Edit: guess that it's called a croton. Thanks for letting me know.
