COMMERCIAL NURSERY – NATIVE STRAPPY LEAF PLANTS
Lomandra longifolia ‘LM400’ – Nyalla® – strappy leaf plant
A tough plant that works well when mass planted and also makes a great specimen plant. For many years Nyalla has been unavailable due to production issues in tissue culture. Several years ago Bluedale made the decision to go back to basics and start a division programme using original parent plant material. The result being that we now have stock available again.
Uses: Mass planting for both commercial and domestic projects.
