Abstract

‘DCMP01’ is a distinctive variety of Dianella caerulea which is characterized by the combination of its dense growth, slightly spreading and compact growth habit, purple-blue flower color, and short canes with very short internodes, which is unusual for a Dianella caerulea, particularly when compared to the ‘Sydney Ecotype’. In addition, ‘DCMP01’ is less prone to falling over than the parent type.
