Variegated Flax Lily is an attractive foliage plant with the binus of
producing sprays of lavender blue flowers followed by showy deep blue fruit.
The fruit is more spectacular than the beautiful flowers -
stalks of shiny turquoise blue berries lasting from fall into winter create a
colorful accent in the garden. Neat grass-like foliage is great for use in
gardens, yellow stripe of variegation on the green blades. It is also good
as a container plant.
A very strong silky fibre is obtained from the leaves. The leaves are
also used in making baskets.
