My Better Half

I found this lovely flower in the Wittunga Botanic Gardens, South Australia. My intended target was the leucospermum that I knew was there and in flower when I was distracted by this growing by the path. Again I don’t know what plant it is as not all plants in this garden are labelled, so if you know drop me a line.

    Thanks, this flower was a chance sighting and I instantly fell in love with it. Unfortunately there was no sign and I have no idea what it actually is. Hopefully someone can help.
