Libertia grandiflora ^Sale

Libertia grandiflora
NZ Iris, Mikoikoi

Description:
Elegant, clump-forming New Zealand native perennial with upright, sword-like green foliage that provides year-round structure and texture. In late spring to early summer, it produces masses of large, pure white, iris-like flowers held above the foliage, creating a striking display. The flowers are followed by attractive seed capsules that add further seasonal interest. Its graceful form and hardy nature make it an excellent choice for borders, mass planting, native gardens, and contemporary landscapes.

60–100cm

Full sun to part shade. Performs best in full sun for maximum flowering but tolerates light shade. Suitable for coastal gardens and tolerant of wind and light frost once established.
