This slow growing evergreen forms a tall, solitary trunk crowned with a perfectly rounded cluster of narrow, blue gray leaves that radiate in all directions, giving it a striking architectural presence. In late spring, mature plants send up tall spikes of creamy white flowers that attract pollinators. Scientific Name: Yucca rostrata
