Protea nitida
''Protea nitida'' (commonly called Wagon tree, Waboom or Blousuikerbos) is a large, slow-growing ''Protea'' endemic to South Africa. It is one of the few Proteas that grow into trees, and the only one that has usable timber.
==Appearance==
The ''Waboom'' is a slow-growing tree, with very thick white-grey bark, that varies considerably in height. It is normally about 5 meters tall, but in good conditions it may reach a height of up to 10 meters, with a trunk diameter of 1 meter. However, on the Cape Peninsula they are typically much smaller.
The young leaves are crimson, but they become a bluish, sea-green colour in later life. Large, bisexual flower heads appear all through the year, especially in winter, and bear sweet nectar. Small nuts are released about a year after flowering.
