Flax - A native of New Zealand, the Maoris have used it for centuries for rope, baskets and clothing. It was also the basis of a substantial linen industry in the early 1900's. New and exciting hybrids are extending the colour range from green / yellow through bronze to pink, red and white combinations.

About twenty hybrid forms are currently grown within New Zealand, with the nectar filled flowers produced by some varieties being an important source of food for New Zealand native birds such as the Tui.

It is now highly prized by floral designers for its versatility in arrangements. Its form can be changed from whole to ribbons and slits. Very long lasting; stem lengths up to 120 cm.

Store in buckets of fresh clean water to maintain flexibility for floral work.
