San Diego County spreads over 4500 square miles from the ocean to the desert, while going through several mountains, and is home to a tremendous amount of plant and animal species. Some species are native and others have been brought over the past few centuries because they fare well in the local weather.
I’m not very educated when it comes to flower names in the area, unless they come with a name tag. The flower below didn’t but it still gave me the opportunity to take this beautiful picture. I love how the orange petals curl in on this very large flower. I did take this photo in July and I thought it’d make a very colorful choice for my 2013 photo calendar. Thanks to a friend of mine commenting on Facebook, I found out this is called a protea pin cushion flower, and the plant is native to South Africa. Beautiful.

Thank you! I know you like flowers and I want to let you know I found out from a friend it’s called a protea pin cushion flower. Really cool looking.
That is the perfect name for it! Love it!
Gorgeous flower. I don’t know the name.
Thanks to a friend of Facebook, I found out it’s a protea pin cushion flower (from South Africa). Do you have them in Florida? Maybe it’s too humid.
I haven’t seen one before but it’s gorgeous!
