Moderate-growing evergreen perennial clumping to 3-5’ tall and wide. This attractive, strongly-upright-growing variety forms a broad clump of multi-toned, 1-1 ½“ wide sword-like leaves in a rich blend of apricot, pink and green. Well-suited in beds, mixed shrub borders, pond or pool areas, as a mass-planting for larger areas, or for using as a color and texture contrast to brightly colored flowers or broadleaf shrubs. Also makes a fine container specimen. Prefers a full to partial sun exposure in a well-drained soil, and while capable of surviving with little water once established, a more robust specimen is achieved with light regular watering. Tolerates coastal conditions. Deer resistant.
USDA Zone: 8-11
