Phormium Jack Spratt Details

Phormium tenax Jack Spratt is a dwarf variety of Flax that produces sword-like leaves that are green with a brown border and black mid-rib.

It grows best and produces the most intense leaf colourings when planted in full sun on a well-drained site. It will tolerate frost, coastal conditions, wind, poor soils, and cool climates.
