Description
6-7' tall x 3-4' wide (seed propagated). A very rare plant in cultivation, summer blooming Pink Texas Yucca is a pleasing companion plant for Russian Sage. The heat of early summer stimulates the growth of its tall, graceful hummingbird-attracting spikes of pink and white flowers. A Chihuahua desert native, it takes a few years for it to establish its deep roots and initiate flowering. However, the plant is long lived and will provide years of pleasure once established. Thanks to Greg Starr of Tucson for our seeds.
