Taupo Sunset

Taupo Sunset
LIBERTIA

Libertia ‘Taupo Sunset’ is an evergreen perennial with a myriad of attractive variegated green, yellow, orange and red striped leaves. This striking New Zealand native offers crisp lines, contrasting texture and an ever changing array of colour. Striped in the tones of sunset - yellow, orange and red - the upright foliage adds a stunning range of colour to the garden year round.  Attractive white iris-like flowers in summer are followed by golden seed pods that pop against the leaves that darken to deep red in winter.  This dense, clumping plant looks fantastic mass planted, used rhythmically throughout a garden border, or as a container feature plant. It is an excellent foliage plant for sunny, well-drained positions, and will add a pop of colour amongst the greenery. Evergreen.
