Want to keep those gorgeous ruby tones looking their best?
Let the sunshine work its magic!
Phormium ‘Ruby Tuesday’ loves a sunny spot, where its foliage can develop its richest colour. It can also tolerate partial shade, making it a versatile addition to the garden.
Give it well-drained soil, water regularly while it’s settling in, and once established, it’ll become a relatively low-maintenance garden companion. Just remember to give it a drink during those long, hot and dry spells!
And here’s a little gardening secret: there’s no need for a dramatic haircut! Simply remove old or damaged leaves at the base to keep your Ruby Tuesday looking fabulous.
Plant Phormium ‘Ruby Tuesday’ among bright green foliage for striking contrast, pair it with ornamental grasses for beautiful texture, or let it take center stage in a decorative pot.
Its rich burgundy tones also look spectacular alongside silver foliage, soft greens and golden-coloured plants.
Whether you’re creating a modern garden, refreshing a dull corner or looking for that one plant that ties everything together, Ruby Tuesday brings the perfect finishing touch!
Why wait for flowers to bring colour into your garden when you can enjoy something spectacular all year round?
