The colour is very similar to foxgloves but one of my neighbours solved the mystery - they're watsonia, from the iris family - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watsonia_(plant)
We've also got orange and white versions. They are a weed in NZ, of course, but they look nice in the borders and aren't encroaching on the bush too much so I'll leave them be for now.
They almost look like Foxgloves but I m no floral expert though...I think they r pretty though
