Once established, it tolerates frost, heat, and dry conditions, making it reliable in many regions. For best results, add compost or organic matter at planting to encourage strong root development. Water regularly during the first few months to help the plant settle in, after which it requires very little care.

Dianella 'Revelation' care tips

Caring for Dianella 'Revelation' is easy, which makes it popular among busy gardeners. Remove any old or damaged foliage to maintain a tidy appearance. Apply a slow release fertiliser in spring to support strong growth and vibrant foliage. Although drought tolerant, it will appreciate the occasional deep watering during extended dry spells.
