| Description | Forms large rosettes of toothless, pliable, blue-green leaves that are wider and more blue than the species. Develops a stout stem that raises the rosette above the ground. At maturity, it sends up an impressive flower stalk that can reach 7 to 10 feet tall. Provides big impact in desert landscapes, but also makes an excellent houseplant, where its growth will be restricted by the size of pot in which it is planted. Evergreen. |
