Lomandra Breeze Grass

Lomandra Breeze Grass is a tough, grass-like evergreen perennial with fine bright-green foliage that forms a dense, softly arching clump. Small yellow flower spikes appear among the blades, but the graceful foliage is the main attraction. It performs in part shade to full sun, with afternoon shade helpful in hot Southern locations, and tolerates coastal exposure and moderate drought once established. Use it in masses, along borders, on slopes, or in containers as a durable alternative to liriope. Available for local pickup from Towns Edge Nursery.
