Lomandra Longifolia, or basket grass, is native to Australia but grows here in the United States as well. Lucky for this plant, it does really well with droughts, so I’m sure it’s prepared for Texas heat in the summertime. This works well for those interested in basket grass, because although you need moisturized soil to plant this guy, it wouldn’t die if you didn’t water it. Interestingly enough, this plant can also have a high tolerance for flooding. Because of its adaptability, basket grass can grow anywhere from swamps and wetlands to the banks of cliffs and rocky hillside.
