San Francisco, California
Botanical Gardens
May 2011
On my visit among the gardens were many beautiful plants and flowers.
Not a lot of color at that time due to the rainy winter.
This one surely caught my eye.
Becky my follower and friend told me this is a Protea plant.
I researched and she is correct, thanks Becky.
There were many different varieties of the Protea.
They are located at the San Francisco Zoo as well.
There are particular areas with plants that are actually tagged with micro chips!

So if one were to "remove it" the plant could be tracked.
I thought that was done for animals and most likely soon real people!
I failed to get the name of this beauty.
Below photograph is same plant in the bud stage.
Cooler temperatures in San Francisco.
I live sixty miles north, which is warmer.
Plants vary in between from there to my home.
I love visiting the city on occasions.
But there is no place like home...
