Growing Astelia Westland

Astelia Westland is best grown in moist, well-drained soils rich in organic matter. It thrives in full sun to partial shade, with brighter foliage colours often seen in sunnier positions. Choose a sheltered location to protect its bronzy-red leaves from the wind. Water regularly during dry periods to maintain soil moisture, especially in summer. Mulching helps retain moisture and suppress weeds. It is an excellent choice for borders, containers, and native-themed gardens.

A light feed with slow-release fertiliser in spring will enhance growth and foliage colour. It prefers a sheltered spot and performs best in well-drained, organically rich soil.
