It matures to an average height of 1 foot to 2 feet and an average width of 1 foot to 2 feet, depending on climate and other environmental factors. It prefers growing in a location that provides full sun, morning sun with afternoon shade or morning shade with afternoon sun and grows best when planted in loam, clay or silt soil that is well drained or moderately drained. In the spring and summer Variegated Flax Lily produces blue flowers. The foliage is white and medium green in color. It attracts butterflies, hummingbirds and visual attention and is resistant to deer, drought, insects, diseases, mildew and heat.
Variegated Flax Lily can be useful in the landscape in mass plantings, in containers or planters, around decks, swimming pools, and other outdoor living areas, in landscape beds or islands or in small groupings and also in cottage gardens, butterfly gardens, hummingbird gardens or perennial gardens.
Variegated Flax lily is noted for its variegated foliage with white and green striping. In early summer it sends up very exquisite, soft airy flowers on thin flower stems that rise in and above the foliage. The airy panicles of white, soft blue, and yellow star-shaped flowers are followed by shiny dark blue berries.
