Libertia grandiflora (syn Libertia chilensis)

Evergreen grassy perennial that adds an architectural feature to gardens.

Native of New Zealand, this evergreen grassy perennial forms substantial clumps which reach over 90cm high and 120cm wide. In early summer, white, bowl-shaped flowers, 2-3cm across, are carried on erect stems and are followed by round seed pods in autumn. In bloom this plant is a sight to behold. Its airy habit makes it perfect for many different styles of gardens from cottage, prairie, meadows and gravel garden. Libertia grandiflora is also ideal for use as borders and mass planting. Very hardy and easy to grow. Frost tolerant.

Also known as New Zealand Iris.

Sadly this flower does not last more than one day in a vase before dropping flowers.  Seed pods however can be used in floral arrangements.

Grow Libertia grandiflora in well-drained soil in full sun. Remove old foliage to keep it looking its best but allow seedbeds to develop as these are attractive in their own right. Divide congested clumps in spring or autumn.
