PHORMIUM Yellow Wave

PHORMIUMYellow WaveKnown almost universally as New Zealand Flax,Phormium Yellow Wave is a clump-forming evergreen perennial with broad, upright, gently arching leaves.The bright green strap-like leaves are boldly stripped and banded with butter-yellow, cream and lime green making it a light and colourful spectacle.At approx. 1.2m tall Phormium Yellow Wave is not the tallest variety but this excellent cultivar with its bold, elegantly weeping randomly coloured foliage makes a real impact in the garden.Mature plants occasionally carry spikes of splendid, tubular, yellow flowers in summer followed by sturdy seed heads.Very versatile Yellow Wave looks at home in a variety of planting schemes, its graceful arching foliage cascading downwards makes it perfect as a centrepiece in a container but it is also at home as a specimen in the border or gravel garden and when used as a contrast in form and texture to other shrubs and perennials it is simply stunning.Phormium Yellow Wave is very suitable for coastal locations and excels in many other contemporary and tropical planting schemes as well.Prefers a site in full sun or partial shade with moist but free draining soil or compost.When allowed to develop into large clumps these handsome plants make fabulous specimens and can become marvellous focal points.This beautiful New Zealand Flax can withstand temperatures down to -10C and is hardy in most parts of the UK but it may suffer foliage damage and stem dieback in extremely harsh winters or in exposed northern locations.All pictures used are of mature plants and may not necessarily reflect plants at all times of the year.Our plants are dispatched approx. 30cm tall ex.10 cm pots and are ready to plant in their final growing positions but they may benefit from growing on for a short period in a slightly larger container.Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit (AGM).PACK 1 PLANTIMMEDIATE DISPATCHFREE DELIVERYWe ask all our buyers to remember plants are living items and their appearance changes with the seasons. Please don’t panic if the plant you receive looks different to the image on the website. This is quite normal and not a matter for any worry or concern, it is likely to be in perfect condition for the time of year and just enjoying a well-earned rest before bursting into action for the new season. Particularly in autumn and winter many shrubs will lose their leaves and look rather bare, gaunt and stick-like and from August onwards many perennial plants may not even be showing above the soil.We want you to be happy with your purchase and all our items are checked and inspected visually before packing. In the unlikely event of a problem please advise us within 48hrs of delivery. Due to the nature of the goods we cannot accept any responsibility for their failure after planting as pests, disease, poor horticultural practice, extremes of weather and many other factors outside our control all take their toll. Goods will only be accepted for return after seller has been informed and given permission for their return. Refunds will be issued when items are received back in saleable condition within 14 days from original despatch date.
