This ornamental
Australian Flax
grows about 50cm high and equally wide, with flower stems peaking over 1m high.
Uses:
Great mass-planted, purely for its colourful foliage, or to add a nice twist to any garden. Just look at the photos!
Position:
This is a tough plant - doing well in partial shade, full sunlight, and it can deal with drought and frost.
Care:
Upon planting, make sure the base of the plant is not below soil or mulch but do ensure it's added to a well-mulched area. Two months after initially, a slow release fertiliser might be of use. Groom the plant by removing old leaves and (once it's established), don't water it too often.
