Phormium 'Maori Queen' ('Rainbow Queen') is a medium sized, beautiful, red-variegated New Zealand Flax with 2 inch wide leaves of olive-green with rose-red edges that fade to pink then cream-colored. Phormium ‘Maori Queen’ has an upright form to 5 feet tall making it ideal as an accent plant for dramatic color interest, in mass plantings, borders, or in containers.

How large does it grow and what is its habit?
It typically grows about 3-6 ft tall and about 3-4 ft wide, forming an upright clump of arching or fanning foliage.
What light and site conditions does it prefer?
Best in full sun to part sun. In very hot or inland zones some afternoon shade helps. Site should have good drainage and bright light for the best color.
What about watering, soil and general care requirements?
Water regularly during the first season; once established it tolerates moderate drought. Plant in well-drained soil; avoid heavy water-logging and rich soil isn’t necessary.
What pests, diseases or caution notes apply?
Generally robust, but weak growth or leaf scorch can result from poor drainage, heavy shade or intense wind/sun exposure. Monitor for those conditions.
