Featured – Nature’s Paintbrush Group – 31Aug11 Winner – Happy Flowers Challenge – Enchanted Flowers Group – 14Nov2011
The extrovert of the floral world – the Gazania! Here is a gorgeous new spring flower with beautiful and vibrant stripes. I love its boldness and confidence to be on show!
Thanks David – Yes, the climatic conditions are much the same. This picture made my day – it was just outside the bakery so I got a great shot and a great pastry for my trouble!! :-)

I know the gazania well – South Africa and Australia share a fair bit of flora. What a magnificent celebration of colour and form.
