Dasylirion serratifolium

Dasylirion serratifolium 
Sandpaper Sotol

Add some desert drama to the garden with this rare, unusual and dramatic succulent!

An architectural and drought tolerant evergreen with perfectly symmetrical long, thin blue/green leaves which have serrated edges. As it matures, it forms a trunk as the leaves naturally die back and tiny star shaped flowers are borne in long panicles in summer. Slow growing and very low maintenance, it is an ideal choice for modern city gardens or gravel and costal gardens.

Grow in full sun/part shade in a sheltered position on light well-drained, gritty soil. Water sparingly and keep compost dry during the winter months. Tolerant of low temperatures, but requires overwintering in a frost-free enviroment
