The Coolvista Dianella is an ornamental grass that keeps its lovely blue-gray color and thrives in full sun, what’s not to love? Add heat and drought tolerance, plus a small stature, and you have a true winner! Try this upright, spiky beauty alone or paired with other sun-loving plants in containers, or use as an eye-catching border. Royal blue berries add to the display each spring.
This plant will thrive in USDA Zones 8-11
Plant in Full Sun to Part Shade for best results.
Water 3-4 times per week during the first growing season. In the second growing season, provide supplementary water in times of extreme heat and drought.
The Coolvista Dianella prefers garden soil with good drainage for best results.
Perennials rarely need supplemental fertilizer, however, 3-4 inches of compost around the plant yearly provides nutrients to keep the plant happy and healthy.
For solid mass plantings or continuous borders space these Dianellas 8-12 inches apart. For individual perennial plantings plant 2 feet apart
