Flax lily


Dianella caerulea

Flax lily

Flax lily is a striking plant with long, grasslike foliage that is often variegated in green and creamy white. In early summer, it sends up airy panicles of white, light blue, or violet star-shaped flowers followed by shiny dark blue berries.

It can be grown indoors in areas where it's not hardy.
