This is Banksia speciosa<\/em> from Proteaceae<\/em> native to Western Australia. We have in our Botanical garden here at UBC.<\/p>\n

Also very much loved by flower arranging societies worldwide in NY and here in Kolkata… too.. importers of exotic flowers are beginning to import them for the last few years…<\/p>\n
