New Zealand Flax 'Maori Chief'
Phormium

This plant from this grower is much darker and richer in its reds.

I bet where you are you have tons!! I notice even the same named ones look so different from different growers. I have 2 more of this one that do not have the inflamed leaves that are just amazing when the sun hits them.

My favorite so far is the Guardsmen. Which is yours?

That's gorgeous, kell! I saw a number of varieties at a nursery last week. They were going for $24.00. I didn't buy one because it seemed like alot of money to spend if it wasn't easy to overwinter in the house. I thought it was a weird time to be selling them.

Here 5 gallons go from about $36 to $56. They are good in some cold from what I have read. But 4 A is pretty brutal for much to live. LOL. You poor girl, Donna. But I bet you have no wrinkles!
