Cape Beauty

I have noticed this flower fairly often in the Cape. With its tight buds and sturdy stem, it seems quite different from what one might encounter in Durban. I’m new to the Cape. Does anyone know this plant? Is it indigenous?

Cape Vegetation

I snapped these pics the last time I was in the Cape. The vegetation is a far cry from that of Durban so I have no idea what this is.. Who can fill me in?

Name that Taal Monument plant

Hi yall,

This pic comes from the same set as the King Protea, both taken at the Taal Monument in Paarl. Not sure what it is but I like it and presume it is indigenous… Any takers?
