Dianella
is very common and conspicuous component of Tasmania's native flora.
The species occur in a wide range of habitats, but are especially
common in dry sclerophyll forests and open wet sclerophyll forests.
There are four native species. Each has numerous basal leaves
(up to about 1m long and 1-2cm wide), and a terminal inflorescence
with pendulous blue-purple flowers with bright yellow stamens. The
fruit is a slightly elongated purple berry about 1-2 cm long. |
