Protea cynaroides, commonly known as the King Protea, is a striking and iconic flowering plant native to South Africa. This magnificent evergreen shrub is renowned for its large, globe-shaped flower heads, which can measure up to 12 inches in diameter. These flower heads are composed of a dense cluster of unique, intricately layered bracts in shades of pink, crimson, or white, surrounding a central, dome-like structure filled with tiny individual flowers. The King Protea's blossoms are not only visually stunning but are also significant cultural symbols in South Africa, representing change and transformation. This plant thrives in well-draining, sandy soils and is well-adapted to its native Mediterranean climate, marked by dry summers and wet winters. It is a prized ornamental plant in gardens and floral arrangements worldwide and is celebrated for its exquisite beauty, making it a standout addition to both garden landscapes and the cut flower industry.  Zones 8-11

Germination

Germinating Protea cynaroides seeds can be a rewarding process. Start by soaking the seeds in a bowl of hot (but not boiling) water for 24 hours to help break their hard outer seed coat. After soaking, plant the seeds in a well-draining mix that contains equal parts of sand and peat moss. Sow the seeds on the surface of the soil, and gently press them down. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Cover the container with a clear plastic lid or plastic wrap to create a humid microclimate, as Protea seeds require high humidity for successful germination. Place the container in a warm and bright location with indirect sunlight. Germination can be slow and erratic, and it may take several weeks to months before you see any signs of growth. Once the seedlings are large enough to handle, carefully transplant them into larger pots or directly into the garden. Protea cynaroides is a unique and highly prized plant, and while its germination process can be challenging, the spectacular blooms it produces are well worth the effort.

Chauvet Hurricane Haze 4D
Style: Haze 4D, Style: Haze 4D
I’ve been a DJ for over 30 years and my lighting plays a big part in my show. I’ve used oil based fog machines which leave a residue and set off fire alarms. I’ve been using water based haze for the last 10 years and my Chauvet arena hazer finally bit the dust. I was hesitant about buying the Hurricane 4D because of the mixed reviews. After buying it and running some tests I found that you have to manually set the fan speed if you are using the wired remote. Also I found it works great if you don’t ask too much of it. I found that I can put it on continuous at roughly 20% volume and it fills and keeps the room full of haze. The haze is equivalent to a smokey bar. It allows your lights to project a cool looking beam for added effects. This hazer is about 1/4 the size of my Arena hazer but puts out about the same amount of haze. I found if you try for too much volume the heater can’t keep up and it spits and wastes haze fluid. But there is no reason for that to happen if you run it as I mentioned above. All in all I think it produces all the haze you will ever need just don’t push the hazer past it limits.

VERY SATISFIED
Style: Haze 4D
So far very happy with this purchase. I have it daisy chained via DMX with 10 YeeSite lights and it works great. Produces an amazing amount of haze for its size.

Truly is too good to be true.
Style: Haze 4D
Looks nice, and it is a great product, but the internal fan has already quit functioning. Not some thing you expect from a brand new item. Before it is assumed, this item stays stationary. We don't move it, and it is used on a stage for a 1800 capacity venue. We don't buy garbage fluid for it. We get the suggested type from Guitar Center.
