Description

A dramatic and evergreen plant for sought-after intrigue. Also known as a New Zealand Flax, Black Velvet stays true to its name with sword-like leaves that are as close to black as they come, arching gracefully from a central clump.

Phormiums are grown in gardens across the country for their memorable look, so why not join the wave of popularity? Towards the tail end of summer, see spikes of tubular red blooms that add an extra layer of interest to this already outstanding plant.

Whats more, Black Velvet is versatile and can be used to add height to a sunny bed or border, or for a patio pot. For best impact, consider planting this variety alongside low-growing flowers in vibrant shades, such as a buttery yellow.

Supplied as an established plant in a 9cm pot, ready for planting.
