Protea lorifolia, in English called the strap-leaved sugarbush, strap-leaved protea or strap-leaf sugarbush is a flowering shrub which belongs to the genus Protea. In Afrikaans this species is known by the vernacular name of riemblaar-suikerbos. The tree's national number is 91.
Protea lorifolia is a striking shrub endemic to South Africa's fynbos region, characterized by its sturdy, upright stems and narrow, leathery leaves. Its large, bowl-shaped bloom heads showcase an array of colors, often a vibrant mix of pinks and oranges, which attract a host of pollinators. Adaptable to poor, sandy soils, protea lorifolia is both fire-resistant and capable of resprouting from its underground stem after wildfires, a survival strategy in its harsh natural habitat.
