I am New Zealand Flax. My family originated from New Zealand

Botanic Name: Phormium tenax

**Clumping/Strappy – Ideal for mass planting**
I am a dramatic architectural plant with tough sword shaped leaves. My foliage is commonly green and cream but I have varieties in a range of colours including yellows, reds and even black. In spring through to summer I produce very large dark flower spikes with red bird attracting blooms. I am a great feature plant in the garden either singly or in groups. My upright habit means I can be an effective screening option.

	Full Sun to Full Shade (6+ hours direct sun to no direct sun)
	Height: 2.5m Width: 1.2m
	I am low maintenance and require minimal water once established
	Great For Pots
	Suitable for coastal planting, I prefer a moist well-drained soil

I am popular and will make you happy because…

	I am equally happy growing in large pots or planted out in range of garden styles
	Naturally tidy, almost never dropping leaves I am often used around pools, ponds or in rockeries
	My red flowers from spring into summer on tall dark stems attract nectar feeding birds
