Looking for a plant that will really make a statement in your garden? Then look no further than the Australian Plant Shop's Phormium Anna Red (NZ Flax). With its striking dark purple leaves, this upright perennial is a real show-stopper and is perfect for use as a feature plant in a pot or mass planted for maximum impact. It also makes a great contrast against green plants and is widely used in Mediterranean style gardens. However, it's important to note that dark leaved Phormiums need more shade than the green flax, so they can burn in hot overhead sun. The plant typically grows to around 2m x 2m. So if you're looking for a plant that will really make an impact, the Phormium Anna Red from the Australian Plant Shop is the perfect choice!
