Astelia Silver Spear is an evergreen perennial forming a large clump of silvery, sword-shaped leaves, with panicles of small greenish flowers followed, on female plants, by orange berries.

Grow ideally in moist, but reasonably well-drained,soil in full sun or partial shade and  a sheltered spot. Not reliably hardy but more hardy planted where dry.Worth every effort to overwinter even if bringing indoors as it is one of the most beautiful of silver leaved plants.Outdoors the weather takes some of the sheen off the leaves ;with protection in a greenhouse they can shimmer.Supplied as small plants in 9cm pots. 

 

Height: 60-150cms

Spread: 50-100cms

 

Please read our notes before placing the order:

 

1. The pictures in this listing are examples of the available plant at maturity and do not indicate anything in regard to size of plant at the point of sale. You will receive an organically produced young plant grown in a 9cm pot for planting immediately or to grow on (pot removed, when possible, to reduce plastic waste)

2. Seasonal difference in plants: Please be aware if you are new to gardening, that the plants we supply are mostly herbaceous perennials and many go dormant in winter. You may receive what looks like an empty pot or piece of root. This will produce new growth in spring.

3. The date the Royal mail label is bought (tracking number added as sent against your orders) is the date your order is lined up for picking. It is likely to be put into the post a couple of days later.

 

Thank you.
