Festive mood for the end of the year: Kangaroo Paws!

I have my bright lights on and have a whole bunch of little festive arrangements going on - apples, persimmons, dry flowers, pine cones, magnolia cones, pistachio tree berries - and a few days ago my collection grew with this branch of Kangaroo Paws! This plant is usually yellow or red and is native to south-western Australia but is now cultivated around the world and scientists sequenced the genome of kangaroo paws and were able to produce many new colors for the kangaroo paw including blues, purples, and whites!
