Giant spear lily is a robust, large clumping plant with flexible, sword-like leaves that grow up to 8 feet (2.4 meters) long. In summer, giant spear lily produces striking crimson-red flowers, each spanning up to 4 inches (10 centimeters) across, that sit atop flower stalks reaching just above the foliage at a diagonal angle. The flowers give way to 4-inch (10-centimeter) long, egg-shaped fruit. This plant thrives in full sun to partial shade conditions, requires minimal maintenance, and is resilient to drought, though it benefits from occasional irrigation. It is tolerant to temperatures as low as 25-30 degrees Fahrenheit (-4 to -1 degrees Celsius).
