Embrace a piece of South Africa's botanical heritage with this charming 9x6cm Blushing Bride Fynbos Drop. Individually handmade by artist Daya Heller, this piece showcases the delicate critically endangered Serruria florida, affectionately called the Blushing Bride protea. Legend says its deepening blush indicated a marriage proposal, inspiring its romantic name. This unique fynbos species thrives in a fire-dependent ecosystem, with parent plants perishing in fires to allow seeds to germinate, embodying nature's cycle of renewal. A beautiful reminder of the Cape's remarkable diversity, this small fynbos keepsake adds a touch of unique South African décor.
