New Zealand Flax 'Dark Delight'
Phormium

This is a great contrast plant. I love its rich deep tones.

Now what's this yellow beauty that looks so good with the flax?

Is that a brug or a angels trumpet? The yellow one that is.

It killed me to kill him too, I had him so long. But if I d not use you to hybridze with, I do not have room for you. I hardly have any yellows Sue. Did I give you Big Yella? I still have a huge sib to Big Yella on the side that is NEVER watered at all!!!! Ever. Amazing. I could cut off a piece of that. I haven't looked at it in over a year, i can't get to it easily. I bet it has a standard already suckered.

yes, I planted Big Yella by my front door, so he can get big and scare anyone coming to the door!
