The smaller variety, the Doryanthes Excelsa,  grows leaves that reach 2-2.5m and  its flowering stalk grows straight, upto 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
