Wow, a lily that forgot to shave!

Great photo!

Which plant family does this belong to? Commelinaceae?

Hi Magpie

Yes, it is a cracking shot, we have a similar species on the East coast of Oz.

Joern - it was in the Liliaceae but that family has now been split into several, and this species is now in the Anthericaceae together with genera such as Arthropodium, Dichopogon, Laxmannia and Tricoryne.

Cheers

Peter
