A lovely steel blue foliaged Lomandra, a strappy leafed perennial native grass. Older leaves are more green, making a nice contrast. Great for massed planting and for bordering, it makes a great native substitute for Liriope. It is low maintenance and drought tolerant, and has an upright growth habit. Suits sun to part shade, and most soils as long as they are well drained. It can be cut back hard to rejuvenate the plant.
