Doryanthes excelsa
The Gymea Lily (Doryanthes excelsa) is a striking foliage plant which has leaves that grow up to 2-2.5m in lenth. The straight flowering stalk grows up to 6-8m and bears a large cluster of bright red flowers, each 10 centimetres across.
When it does flower, Doryanthes excelsa flowers in spring. However it can take over 13 years to flower. Flowering can be brought on by bushfires, which also promotes the sprouting of root bulbs.

Gymea Lily's are architectural plants that have strong shapely foliage which draws the eye and contrasts against almost any other plant or building. They look great in a modern garden.
The larger variety, the Doryanthes palmeri, grows leaves that reach 3m, hence the name Giant Spear Lily. Its stalk grows up to 5m and droops rather than standing upright due to the weight of the flowers.
