Phormium which one

What's your weather like 2026
Cloudy this morning and becoming more dull with some rain later. Tomorrow looks the best day of the week (obviously I’m in work).

Queen of the Night seems to be the consensus here. I've got a few red ones that keep coming back year after year but honestly couldn't tell you what variety they are anymore, the labels vanished ages ago. The red ones always seem the most stubborn about returning which suits me fine.
