Lomandra Seascape is a graceful, clumping Australian native prized for its fine, blue-grey foliage that forms a soft, weeping habit. The arching leaves move beautifully in the breeze, creating a relaxed, coastal look reminiscent of rippling ocean waves. During summer, it produces spikes of lightly fragrant yellow flowers that rise above the foliage, adding a gentle contrast in both colour and texture. This hardy, low-maintenance plant is well suited to a range of landscape uses, including patio pots, rockeries, and border edges. Its flowing form makes it especially effective for softening hard landscaping elements such as retaining walls, pathways, and garden edges, while bringing year-round structure and movement to the garden.

Its tough nature and eye-catching foliage make it a standout choice for modern gardens seeking year-round appeal.
