This is one of the little-known native gems from the southwest US that is completely adaptable to most of the moist eastern US as well. Hesperaloe resembles a yucca but is a little more socially acceptable (safer around kids and bending gardeners) because it was born sans spines. The thick upright-growing, blue-green foliage makes a nice clump, especially from May through July, when it is topped with 40" spikes of rich salmon-pink flowers in late summer...a truly wonderful plant, especially in mass plantings. While hesperaloe is very easy to grow, it will perform much better in very dry soils. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
Zone: 5-9, at least
