Stylidium graminifolium 'ST116'

PBR

Description: Striking blue foliage tussock that gives the appearance of a miniature grass tree.

This elegant trigger plant bears exquisite deep pink flowers elevated just above the foliage.

Uses: Rockeries, borders and mass plantings. An excellent under planting in lightly shaded areas.

Suitable for grassy and flowering gardens.

Position: Tolerates a wide range of soils and withstands both dry and wet conditions.

Frost cold and drought tolerant. Prefers full sun or part shade.

Care: Use a native slow release fertiliser. Trim old flower spikes after flowering.

Interesting facts: When the flower trigger is activated by an insect, it swings up and deposits pollen on the insects back.
