Plant of the Month September - Red Tussock
Red tussock was once very widespread in Southland. It grows naturally in wet areas but is now more commonly seen as a landscaping plant. At the nursery we grow hundreds of plants from seed and they are available most of the year. Red tussock is a large grass-like plant that grows about 1 metre tall - its size makes it a very distinctive and dramatic plant to use for garden or wetland restoration.
