Gymea lily is a stunning, architectural native with an upright, clumping growth habit and large sword-shaped leaves. The Lily produces a spectacular 4m high deep-red flower head in spring. The flowers are rich in nectar, often visited by birds, bees and other insects. It is easy to maintain by simply cutting off the old flower heads and removing any dead or dying foliage in autumn. Use singularly as a feature in a pot or courtyard, but equally impressive mass planted commercially for impact.
