Fantastic golden, evergreen grass-like foliage with bright central yellow stripe. Pure white starry flowers in late spring, followed by yellow berries in autumn. Its compact and neat habit makes this a bright feature in pots or in the front of the border. Grow hungry for best colour (40cm x 40cm). - Garden care: Selectively cut out old foliage to reveal attractive new growth. Dislikes being too wet in winter, and will benefit from a dry mulch in autumn. Divide congested plants in spring or autumn. Leave the spent flower spikes to mature and form attractive seed heads.
