Phormium cookianum
Phormium cookianum
A superb species, one of the hardiest and the most striking. Long arching green leaves all year round, and 2 metre long flower stalks over summer - particularly attractive to native birds. Use as a 'groundbreaker' in new gardens, en masse on banks. Foliage and flowers are great for floral artwork.
Feature:

Evergreen luxuriant growth.

Uses: Gardens, screens, rockeries or banks. Excellent en masse for erosion and weed control.
Position: Sun or part shade, and any reasonable soil, hot or cold, dry or damp.
Care: Easy care - a light general fertiliser dressing in autumn and occasional grooming to remove oldest leaves will keep the bush tidy and vigorous.
