This plant was a seedling selection made by Ian Shimmen of Mount Evelyn, Victoria, Australia and was registered and accepted as a protected plant by Plant Breeders Rights in Australia in January 2020. We received this plant with the breeders code name 'LCP1020' in July 2020 with a trial of 5 other Lomandra from Star Roses and Plants (Ball Horticulture) with the proposed marking name 'Misty Green'. It did well in our trials with the decision that it be being released with the cultivar name 'Mislimra' and the marketing name Leading™ Lime Mist. Under this name it has a US Plant Patent applied for. This plant performed well in our trials in 1 gallon containers and was selected as being unique with the finest textured foliage of any Lomandra cultivar that we have ever grown. As we learn more about how this plant performs in the landscape we will add this information. The other plant selected from these trials was Lomandra confertifolia Leading™ Lime Tight ['Limtigra'].  This information about Lomandra confertifolia Lime Mist ['Mislimra'] PPAF displayed is based on research conducted in our library and from reliable online resources.
