Dianella nigra, also known as turutu in Māori, is a perennial herb found in New Zealand. It belongs to the Asphodelaceae family and has bright blue berries that are appealing to birds. However, these berries are not edible for humans due to their bitter taste and potential toxicity if consumed in large quantities.
