Safari Sunset : Flower Facts

Origins

Botanical Name Leucadendron, these are a very large and diverse genus of protea-type plants that vary from small trees and large, very bushy shrubs down to small groundcover-like plants. Safari Sunset is one of the most popular Leucadendron available. The head of the flower is a bright red colour. Safari Sunset comes in two different variations, single stems, which have one long straight stem with a single head at the peak and spray which have multi stems, which branch out with four or more heads on each stem. The flowers are actually an insignificant a cone surrounded by large colourful bracts, which are often mistaken for the flower itself. Deep wine coloured. It is the leaves rather than the flowers that make this popular
