It is native to the arid lands of Texas and Mexico, growing in well-drained soils with both grasses and agaves. It is strong enough to endure reflected pavement heat in the medians of low desert highways if provided irrigation. Narrow leaves give it a fine texture. Its neat clumps slowly spreading slowly if adequate water is provided. Red-flowered false yucca produces a tall bright coral spike of equally hot colored tubular flowers that draw hummingbirds like a magnet. The leathery flowers last for months and are followed by golf ball sized seed pods. If the fruits are removed quickly, new flower buds will form to extend the bloom time even further. This marginally hardy perennial requires a bit more water because its foliage is only semi-succulent. Under severe drought it may even go dormant. Plant red false yucca in drifts or large groups. It is also suitable for containers or as a single accent plant placed among boulders or rocky outcroppings. (info source: Learn2Grow.com) Extra seeds The seeds are hand-selected.
