Description

This yellow variety of Hesperaloe is a spectacular accent for desert gardens anywhere, especially when planted with red color flowers. Plants tolerate drought, full sun, reflected heat, poor soils, and cold down to at least 0 degrees F. It grow to 5' tall and 3' wide. The yellow flower stalks emerge in spring and remain on the plant until the end of summer. Somewhat rare and very desirable.

Water Saving Tip:

Apply as little fertilizer as possible.

If you use fertilizer make sure it stays on the landscape, and carefully water it in so there is NO runoff.
