Leucadendron galpinii, also known as Conebush, but I like the common name in the title better, since those cones are so round.

Will grow shrubby to 6 to 8ft. tall. Primarily used in gardens for it’s twisting grey-green leaves, but those ivory cones with the little yellow flowers are astonishing and good for cut flowers too! You will be in its spell if you let yourself get absorbed.
