Astelia nervosa 'Westland' Red Mountain Astelia

Astelia nervosa ‘Westland’ commands attention with its striking, sword-like foliage, shimmering in silvery-green with a bronzed tint that intensifies in cooler weather. This architectural, evergreen perennial forms a bold, fountain-like clump, adding texture and movement to borders, containers, and contemporary landscapes. Thriving in sun or partial shade, ‘Westland’ brings a tropical touch to temperate gardens while being drought-tolerant, deer-resistant, and wind-hardy. Low-maintenance and evergreen, this New Zealand native is perfect for creating structure and contrast year-round.
