Dianella tasmanica ‘Tasred’™ is a clumping, evergreen perennial featuring dark green strap-like leaves with striking red to burgundy tones at the base and clusters of small star-shaped pale blue or dark violet flowers with yellow stamens followed by shiny, oblong dark blue to purple berries. Uses include mass planting, borders, erosion control, weed suppression, container planting, low-profile, informal hedge, and understory groundcover. Excellent in seacoast landscapes. Highly shade tolerant. Tolerates full sun, but full sun causes foliage to appear more lime-green rather than dark green. It adapts to most well-draining soils (sandy, sandy loam, and clay). Moderate to low water use; drought resistant once established, but requires some moisture in extreme heat. Deer and rabbit-resistant. Verticillium wilt-resistant. Virtually pest-free. Fire-resistant when maintained. Cold hardy to 15°F.
