I have divided Lomandra a number of times and found it pretty easy. I cut the top growth back quite savagely and try to include as much root material as possible. They will sit there for a few months or so and then come away fine. Depending on the size of your clump, you can divide them up into smaller clumps as well. I have noticed however they recover faster along the edge that is uncut ie. the outside where the new shoots would normally appear. Keep them well watered. Also take care you do not plant them too close to your shrubs/trees as their roots can get very competitive. I prefer the Tanika variety mentioned by Richard as well. It has a much more delicate look and is more in scale ie. not too big.

Would be interested in sending an SSAE for the following seeds please if youj still have anyj left. Climbing Aloe seeds. Lomandra longifolia seeds (Basket Grass - native) Stypandra seeds - a lovely native grassy thing, with purple flowers and fruit (non edible) Veltheimia seeds - dusty pink Winter Iris seeds, blue Thank you Jill

Most of the new forms of Lomandra being used in landscaping etc. have come from Abulk as a result of persistant and careful selection. They actually employ folk to be vigilant in detecting any genetic variation in their seed grown plants. If anything interesting comes along it is immediately separated and if it shows promise it is grown on to see how it turns out. All of the Lomandras are looked at for potential and as a result they are selling variations of L. longifolia, L. filiformis, L. confertifolia and lots of Dianellas. It is obvious there is more out there. Victoria must have considerable genetic variation in Lomandra to surprise a few gardeners in the future.

So many options! Some colorful, some green carpets, some more ornamental, some native etc etc....looks like you’ve got pretty full sun. Google some of these botanical names. -Teucrium chamedrys prostratum -Rubus pentalobus -Arctostaphylos ‘emerald carpet‘ -Trachelospermum jasminoides -Erigeron karvinskianus -Lomandra longifolia ‘breeze’ -Rosa ‘meidiland’ -Lavandula ‘Provence’ or ‘Goodwin Creek’ Don‘t forget the irrigation! (Even crushed rock if your going more xeriscape)
