Hi
Phormium  or commonly known as New Zealand Flax 
Very frost hardy and can get quite large

Thanks that's great. Any ideas on the one on the left?

Liriodendron

It's rather a small photo and a bit blurry... but the one on the left could be a cordyline...

have a display of lillies in a container which have recently flowered. I have discovered strange dark nodules at the nodes between the leaves on the stems. Are they seed pods, because I would have thought the seeds would develop in the pods on top of the stems, left after flowering had I not removed them ?

@Lou. You would be better posting this as a separate question.

However those a bulbils. Some types of lilies develop these. Grow them on like seeds and you will have hundreds of lilies. They do take a few years though.

Thankyou so much. Will sow  them in a tray and leave them labelled, in  a sheltered part of the garden till I see some life. 
I have some similar bulbils on my Schubertii alliums. Will try them too. Thanks again. 😁

My New Zealand flax likes it here. The last flower it threw out went to over ten feet!
