    #OTD Cyntha Letty, #SouthAfrican #Botanical #Illustrator, is born.

    The #CythnaLetty #Medal honors botanical #Artists who promote South African #Flora.

    Cyntha designed #Floral emblems for her country's #Coin #Currency:
    #Aloe for 10¢, #Protea for 20¢, #Agapanthus for 50¢.

    She wrote #Poetry as well:

    I hitched my wagon to a #Daisy
    #Direction #Vague & #Destination #Hazy

    But, could any #Star have guided me
    more exactly
    to where I most dearly #Loved to be?
