Phormium tenax 'Surfer' - Surfer New Zealand Flax
Market price from $32.50 to $48.50
Phormium tenax 'Surfer' is a dynamic fixture in any landscape, offering year-round visual appeal with its architectural aesthetic. Known as 'Surfer' New Zealand Flax, this hardy perennial stands 2 - 3 feet tall and wide, fitting into a variety of spaces from compact urban gardens to expansive coastal landscapes. It uniquely combines functionality with beauty; the robust, compact growth features narrow, arching, blue-green leaves that not only form a visually intriguing surf-like twist but also display remarkable resilience towards varied conditions, thriving in full sun to part shade, and tolerating both dry soils and sea spray with ease. Come summer, the plant rises to new heights, unveiling tall spikes adorned with tubular red flowers - a delightful spectacle that also doubles as a charming invitation to local bird species. Favoring low water usage, it's the ideal choice for those seeking a landscape accent that's easy to maintain yet impossible to ignore. The Surfer New Zealand Flax isn't just adaptable; it's a celebration of nature's resilience wrapped in an attractive package, providing the perfect blend of visual interest and hardiness.
