DescriptionDoryanthes palmeri  The Doryanthes Palmeri grows its big leaves up to 3m, hence the name Giant Spear Lily. The stalk grows up to 5m and droops rather than standing upright due to the weight of the flowers. The smaller variety, the Doryanthes Excelsa,  grows leaves that reach 2-2.5m and its flowering stalk grows straight, up to 6-8 metres and bears a large cluster of bright red flowers, each 10 centimetres across. Doryanthes palmeri flowers in spring but can take over 13 years to flower. Flowering can be brought on by bushfires, which also promotes the sprouting of root bulbs

Cotinus Coggygria, Smoketree

Purple Smoke Bush is a gem in the garden thanks to it's unique blend of colours that change throughout the seasons. A large deciduous shrub or small tree, its beautiful eye-catching Spring foliage is green overlaid with purple. Summer brings deep purple foliage that then turns deep orange and bronze in a burst of glory for an Autumn show. Purple Smokebush gets its name from the clouds of smoke-like purple and pink "flowers" it produces in early Summer. These are very beautiful themselves, and are prized along with the foliage by florists. Grows best in full sun to partial shade and it is tolerant of drought and most soils, making it a great addition to many gardens. 10" pot size.
