DASYLIRION LONGISSIMUM THE MEXICAN GRASS PLANT

MEDIUM SIZED UNUSUAL SUN PLANT
DROUGHT TOLERANT – LOVES FULL SUN

This interesting drought tolerant plant is native to Mexico and extremely drought tolerant. In gardens, I’ve seen a few older plants with a few feet of trunk. But, this species can actually get a trunk that is six or eight feet tall in fifty or a hundred years. It loves hot sun. The crown of needle like leaves is about eight feet across. Each leaf is about the size of a knitting needle and four to six feet long. They come to a point but are not very dangerous except perhaps to one’s eye. The plant looks like a “Pom Pom on a Trunk”. Leaf color is blue to blue green. Cold tolerance is into the teens F. They like hot sun. I’m offering a nice discount on good sized 5 gallon plants as shown below. The stems are around 4 inches thick at the base. Plant age is about 8 years. This size can easily be mail orderd.

Just mention this Blog Only Special when purchasing to get this price.
