species and cultivars
Common Names: Flax Lillies

Suitable for understory planting in a rainforest-style garden or mass-planting in contemporary landscapes. Flowers and fruit are modestly attractive, but the grass-like clumping habit is the main feature. In addition to the several native species, named cultivars selected for superior landscape performance have been developed in recent years available.
