The compact clumps of arching leaves are mostly cream with green narrow edges, which produce tubular yellow blooms in the summer. These are a versatile perennial and are ideal for planting in beds, borders, and patio containers. In the winter they will need some protection from cold, strong, winds so be sure to select a suitable position in a bed or border, and if it is potted up in a container, move before the winter conditions arrive. It will also appreciate full sun and at times some shade. Height and spread 1m (3’).
