Sweeping arching leaves in vibrant golden yellow with subtle green streaks create a cascading effect, as if sunlight has been captured in motion. The gracefully recurved foliage maintains its cheerful colour throughout the year, developing warmer tones in cooler weather. More fluid in form than many upright varieties, it brings movement to planting schemes with its gently undulating habit. Exceptionally tolerant of coastal winds and urban pollution, it thrives in sunny positions with well drained soil while requiring minimal care. Perfect for adding luminosity to contemporary borders or container displays, the flowing leaves combine beautifully with purple foliaged plants or blue flowering companions. A superb choice for introducing year round radiance to Mediterranean inspired gardens or modern landscapes, where its golden waves bring constant vibrancy.
