Phormium Dwarf Green Details

Phormium cookianum Dwarf Green is a variety of flax grown for its foliage and small stature. It produces stiff and erect, sword-like leaves that are a fresh green colour. It typically grows to 75 cm tall and 60 cm wide with a tidy and compact habit. It performs best when planted in full sun on a well-drained site though it will tolerate frost, coastal conditions, wind, poor soils, moderate shade, and cool climates. Phormium Dwarf Green is a versatile plant that makes a fantastic addition to mixed plantings and borders, using in coastal gardens, planting to accentuate water features such as ponds and streams, or growing around pool and barbecue areas. It is also well suited for mass planting on a bank and in these situations provides an impressive display.
