I thought I'd show you the bouquet of flowers that I bought at our farmer's market last week. They were so exotic and only $5 so I had to bring them home. I was told that the big flowers are called Protea. These are a little different than the beautiful sunflowers that Pig-Town Designs bought at her farmer's market. Being from the Midwest, the sunflowers are more what I'm used to. I thought I'd show you what we have out here in SoCal.
:-) You REALLY need to come visit us when we're back in Australia then! Those proteas, though they're a native of (I think) South Africa, they grow readily in Australia. Lots of people have them in their gardens. You'd love the Banksia's and Wattles too I'm sure!
