The answer to this competition is Broadleaf Sugarbush - Protea eximia. The winner is S Brink, 1 Fletcher Street, Bredasdorp, 7380. Congratulations to our winner.

All submitted entries were correct. Well done to all entrants!

Identify this member of the Protea family and win yourself a Protea Atlas T-shirt.

All the diagnostic features that you need to identify this protea are visible. Clues, keys, diagnostic features and much more are available on this web site - browse to your heart's content. Alternatively, you may use the Sasol Proteas to identify the protea.

Lets see lots of correct entries!

Every month a new protea (any member of the protea family) will feature. The quiz will alternate between pictures, distribution maps and some historical/medicinal or horticultural feature of proteas. Please feel free to enter every month. This month's prize is a cream, crew-neck T-shirt, with pocket emblazoned with the protea atlas logo. Please specify your size (s,m,l,xl).

It is not difficult to work out which protea this is!

Rules:

Volunteers, Protea Atlassers and members of the public may enter. No Protea Atlas Project Staff Member or the Webmaster may enter this competition.

A previous winner of this competition does not win a T-Shirt unless there is a two month break to his/her winning streak. The previous winner may still submit an answer.

Your single entry must reach the Protea Atlas office by 31 October 1999. It should e-mailed to protea@nbict.nbi.ac.za

Both the genus and the species name should be submitted. Please use either the Official Common Names for Proteas or the botanical scientific name.

The first correct entry drawn out of the hat is the winner.

The results of the draw will be published at this web site.

The judge's decision is final and no correspondence will be entered in to.
