$Protea cynaroides, also called the king protea, giant protea, honeypot or king sugar bush is a distinctive member of Protea, having the largest flower head in the genus. It is widely distributed in the southwestern and southern parts of South Africa in the fynbos region.\nThis unusual flower has a long vase life in flower arrangements, and makes for an excellent dried flower.\nProtea cynaroides is adapted to survive wildfires by its thick underground stem, which contains many dormant buds; these will produce the new growth after the fire.$

Each spectacular flower head features a central bouquet of inner flowers surrounded by stiff, pointed, colorful bracts. Their color ranges from greenish white through silky silvery pink to red. In its native habitat, King Protea blooms primarily in warmer months, but sporadically throughout the year.

This photograph was taken on June 9, 2024 in La Palma (Canary Islands). Belonging to the oldest flower families, the protea is believed to be named after the son of the Greek god Poseidon, Proteus. Protea symbolizes transformation, as well as courage and ingenuity. It also signifies diversity, as there are more than 1,400 varieties of this flower.
