Black Magic
PVR Black Magic
Phormium tenax
Phormium ‘Black Magic’ has become a landscape favourite for its elegant, low growing, clumps of spiky, jet-black foliage, bordered with a very fine lime-green stripe. This outstanding colour and architectural form places ‘Black Magic’ in the top performers of the flax and grass-like category, providing year-round interest for shrub borders and containers. It is also well-suited to low maintenance and contemporary, or minimalist gardens. Plant in moist, fertile, well-drained soil, in sun or semi-shade. Wind, coastal and frost tolerant. Evergreen.
