Astelia ‘Silver Shadow’ – 180MM

(Not currently available to be ordered)

I am Astelia Silver Shadow. My family originated from New Zealand

Botanic Name: Astelia nervosa ‘Silver Shadow’

**Strappy/Grasses – Year round foliage colour**
Adding striking colour and form to the garden I am a very ornamental evergreen perennial with long, glistening silver, sword-like leaves which arch elegantly. Primarily grown for my stunning foliage I grow male and female plants the latter of which produce yellow to green flowers followed by orange berries in summer. Not fussy I will perform at my best in fertile well drained soils and perform equally as well in full sun to shaded situations. I bring structure with my silver foliage making me a great choice for general landscaping and borders. I am a good choice for challenging and exposed locations including pollution, salt spray and other similarly challenging environments.

	Full Sun to Full Shade (6+ hours direct sun to no direct sun)
	Height: 1.2m Width: 1.5m
	While I am drought tolerant I will perform better with regular water
	Great For Pots/Contain
	Hardy I am ideal for coastal planting, exposed locations and tolerate dry conditions

I am popular and will make you happy because…

	My strappy metallic silvery foliage is a great way to create contrast in the garden
	I am ideal in borders, mass planted and a good choice for pots and other containers
	I have small cream flowers during summer which are followed by orange berries

in pots and other containers
in garden beds and general landscaping
in coastal conditions

Tips for success…

	I benefit from a regular feed with a general purpose fertiliser
	Plant me 1m apart
	100% Recyclable Pot and Label Most pots and labels made from 100% recycled polypropylene
