Leucadendron Inca Gold

A dense shrub from the Proteas family.  It can reach a height of up to six feet tall and wide.  It has cones within bracts that turn yellow full sun. The cones can be described as small reddish raspberries sitting atop tall stems. The leaves by contrast are a blueish-green color. This shrub grows up to six feet tall and five feet wide.
