Gymea Lily (Doryanthes excelsa) is an Australian native shrub found in the Sydney region and further north. The ruby red flowers (each about 10 cm across) grow in clusters, on tall spikes high above the foliage. They are hard to photograph because the spikes may be up to 4 metres (about 12 feet) in height.
