New Zealand Flax Jester This is a great flax. Phormium ‘Jester’ is a new variety bearing long coloured leaves with a broad, dark pink stripe and limey-green margins down each leaf- a true stunner. They make ideal specimens for seaside and low maintenance gardens, providing extra all year colour. Jester also makes an excellent container plant.Site: Tolerates coastal exposureSoil: Well drained soilsPosition: Full sunSeason of Interest: Pinky-red and lime green, evergreen foliageHardiness: Fully hardy, may need some Winter protection in cold areasHeight: 3ft (1m) Spread: 3ft (1m)
