Overview: A yucca grown for its grass-like evergreen foliage and tall spikes of coral-red, tubular flowers.

Mature size: Approximately 2–3 ft. tall and wide (foliage), with flower spikes rising 4–6 ft. or more.

Sun exposure: Full sun

Flowering season: Summer, with tall spikes of bell-shaped flowers

Hardiness: USDA Zones 4–10, depending on species

Water needs: Low; extremely drought-tolerant once established

Special features: A related but distinct genus (Hesperaloe) with narrower, grass-like leaves and coral-red rather than white flowers; a favorite of hummingbirds. Bold, architectural, sword-leaved evergreen; needs sharp drainage and struggles in wet, heavy soil; leaf tips are sharp, so site away from high-traffic areas; extremely low-maintenance once established

Wildlife value: Moths and hummingbirds; a specific yucca moth is the plant's primary pollinator

Botanical name: Yucca - Hesperaloe parviflora
