Capture the exquisite rarity of the Cape Floral Kingdom with this 9cm Blushing Bride Fynbos Drop. Handcrafted by artist Daya Heller, this unique South African botanical art piece features the critically endangered Serruria florida, lovingly known as the Blushing Bride protea. Its common name stems from romantic folklore, where the flower's deepening pink signified a suitor's ardent affection, causing the maiden to blush. Beyond its beauty, this fynbos gem relies on fire for regeneration, with seeds only germinating after a blaze, making each preserved bloom a testament to resilience. Perfect as natural home décor or a meaningful keepsake from the Western Cape, available for standing or hanging display.

Specimen:  Blushing Bride flower (sc. Serruria florida) also known as 'The Pride of Franschhoek'.

Item height:  9cm.
