Botanical Name: Doryanthes palmeri
Common Names: Giant Spear Lily,

A fabulous native lilly that naturally occurs in a small pocket along the East Coast where Queensland meets New South Wales. A large leaved lily with bright green sword-like foliage that forms in rosettes. Flowering only once per rosette it produces a huge red flower head on a long stalk. It can take many years for the plant to reach flowering maturity but its worth the wait. Use singularly as a feature in a pot or courtyard, but equally impressive mass planted commercially for impact.
