Dianella Tasmanica ‘Variegata’ sometimes known as White Striped Tasman Flax Lily grows 1 to 2 feet tall. This clumping low water requiring dianella is grown for its bold white striped leaves. The small flowers which appear in mid spring have pale violet sepals with white-striped green petals. These flowers are followed by attractive dark blue berries. It is best grown in light shade but will do well in full coastal sun if grown in well drained soil.
