Commonly known as red yucca, although it is not a true yucca. It is an extremely hardy plant native to southern Texas and Mexico, tolerant of drought and heat, and can withstand most frosts. The long thin leaves are spineless, yucca or aloe-like, with attractive white fibrous threads along the edges. Once established, Hesperaloes are drought tolerant if planted in a well-drained and fairly deep soil. We have seen quite a few deaths in winter, probably due to too much water causing root rot, so perhaps planting on a slightly raised or sloping site will help in the wettest of winters. Once established they don't need any additional feeding or watering.

The long-lasting, spectacular red flowers are borne on tall, branched flower stems 1 - 2 metres high. Although it can be used as a garden specimen, it can also replace or even mix with ornamental grasses. The plants eventually spread by underground suckers, but they are quite controllable and their clump-forming habit is one of their main attractions.
