About this image
435. Protea and Golden-breasted Cuckoo, of South Africa.
This magnificent Protea (P. speciosa, Linn.) grows about as tall as a man, and is remarkable alike for its thick, red-margined leaves, and its elegantly fringed bracts. Over a century ago (1786) Masson sent seeds of it to Kew, and the first plant flowered in the nursery of Grimwood and Wykes, at Kensington, in August 1800.
