It is tolerant of frost, wind, coastal environments, and most soil conditions, except extreme wet or dry. Phormium Twisted Sister is commonly added to mixed and border plantings, included in coastal gardens, planted around outdoor living areas, or maintained in a container. It is also well suited for mass planting on a bank and in these situations provides an impressive display.
