I Am and So Are You!
"Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else."....
Margaret Mead
The first time I saw a Protea flower, I was stunned by its unique beauty. After a bit of sleuthing online, I found a resemblance between this flower and an Orange Pincushion flower. Apparently the Protea flower, its nectar, and the seeds are very poisonous to human beings, dogs and cats. In fact, all parts of this plant can cause irritation on the skin and pain in the mouth and tongue if they are consumed.
