Evergreen Monocotyledonae

Description

Know as 'Mountain Flax' this name is very misleading as it is also found from mountain to coast. Often found growing perched on a steep mountainside or coastal cliff

Wharariki is also a very tough and hardy plant.

Wharariki has softer shorter leaves than Harakeke. The leaves are arched giving the plant a more drooping look. Overall it is a lot smaller than Harakeke, making it useful where a smaller flax is desired.

The flowers on Wharariki are more drooping and often a bright yellow-green colour.

Wharariki is also a very tough flax, and will withstand almost any conditions. It also naturally comes in green and purple variations both of which are very attractive mass planted.
