Plants are dispatched in growing condition and may not be in full flower. If too tall to pack safely, we may cut them back — this helps them establish more quickly. Read our Mail Order FAQs.
Sisyrinchium striatum bears soft yellow flowers with darker centres, clustered at intervals along upright stems in early summer. Fans of pale grey-green, iris-like leaves give this evergreen perennial structure and texture throughout the year.
Native to woods and scrub in Argentina and Chile, it becomes drought-tolerant once established and is useful in gravel gardens or dry, sunny planting. It grows best in full sun in well-drained, neutral to alkaline soil of low fertility. It can also cope with dappled shade where the soil is moist but free-draining; avoid sites prone to winter wet.
