Spider Lily
The Spider lily is a very low maintenance plant perfect for border or in-fill
planting. Long, arching, green glossy strap-like leaves similar to that of
Agapanthus. They grow in clumps up to 1m wide with flowers arising on
stalks in clusters. The flowers are large, white in colour, and have a
subtle fragrance. Spider lilies grow well in well-drained soil and benefit
from a dry period in autumn to flower profusely in summer. This plant will
thrive in any garden and looks great planted along garden edges.
Another common Spider lily is the Hymenocallis speciosa. Slightly
smaller averaging 60cm in height.
