Purchasing Phormium Plants In NZ

The Plant Company prides itself on growing and sourcing the best plants for our customers. Strict quality standards mean that only the best flax plants will ever be dispatched. We have a wide variety of New Zealand grown plants that absolutely thrive in New Zealand’s climate. Each plant is packed with extreme care, ensuring it arrives to you in the same condition it was in at its nursery. Our impressive Google Rating is testament to how well we perform so you can shop with confidence from the best in the industry.

What To Consider When Buying Flax Plants

A cheap flax plant usually comes in a very small pot and has both small foliage and small roots. The small plant can be appealing when you are on a budget, however, think of such plants as babies. They only have a small root system, so they need careful attention for watering and are more vulnerable to diseases such as root rot. The Plant Company therefore recommends you only buy plants in a 1.5L pot (preferably bigger) to have the greatest chance of success, even if you are on a budget. Any savings by buying small are lost when they die, and you have to replace them! Moreover, the plants need to be “chunky”, have a strong root system, and show no signs of disease. Be sure to check out our Flax varieties so you are buying the best plants at a competitive price.
