Plant description
Forming a dense tussock of slender, silvery green leaves, which become curled towards their tips, this undemanding evergreen will tolerate most conditions. It's primarily grown for its foliage, which offers year-round interest, but it will also produce tiny, green flower spikes in summer. It's perfect for adding interest to winter pots, or for low-maintenance ground cover at the front of the border.
