Leucospermum lineare x glabrum


Commonly known as Tango, also part of the Leucospermum (pin cushion) genus. These flowers grow on a very similar upright bush to the high gold, except the Highgold tend to grow on a longer more controlled stem. As a flower the tango is more open than the Highgold flower, and is often preferrable among decorative users.  

Leucospermum cordifolium x patersonii


Commonly known as Highgold, they are part of the Leucospernum genus (also known as pin cushion). They grow on upright structured bushes similar to that of the Leucadendron, and grow to a hight of around 2 meters high. They have a very 'sticky' pollen that coats the stems and leaves.
