South African flora; Wood Irises / Night Lilies and 'Vygies.' I have always admired these little flowers here in SA, you could say they are Africa's equivalent of daisies!

Bird of paradise flowers are so funky, I am in love! (Also known as Strelitzias)

A bold pattern featuring the beautiful king protea from South Africa

This pattern took me ages, long enough to make me wonder what I was thinking even starting on such an ambitious (for me) project. But my garden is full of proteas, and they are so lovely, I find their shapes and colors endlessly inspiring, so it had to be done. I couldn't ignore them anymore. : )
