Hello! What is that plant with yellow tip. It looks gorgeous and where can I get it. I do collect South African Native plants, too. I got addicted when I tried my aunt's protea soup.

It's a bad picture of the flowers of Ansellia africana, a succulent epiphytic orchid. They are yellow throughout, with more or less (or sometimes none) brown spots.

Protea soup?!
Please, oh please elaborate.

It's a modified version of the Golden Needle soup. Little bit of pork rolled in cornstarch and you throw in some ginger and protea instead of golden needle lilies and you got really delicately delicious soup.
