It can be Anigozanthos flavidus or some cultivar of Anigozanthos also, as per POWO 1 (Anigozanthos flavidus Redouté) and POWO 2 (Anigozanthos rufus Labill.).

I tried but could not find the difference between Anigozanthos flavidus and A.rufus.

There are many colours in Anigozanthos flavidus and many cultivars of Anigozanthos as per
