Dasylirion Quadrangulatum

Design with this plant

Overview

The Toothless Sotol (Dasylirion quadrangulatum) is an evergreen perennial sporting a dense rosette of narrow, toothless, succulent leaves. Thriving in USDA zones 7-11, it reaches 4-6 feet in height with a similar spread. This low-maintenance, drought-tolerant native to Northeastern Mexico is ideal for xeriscaping. Its creamy-white, fragrant blooms on 10-15 foot stalks in summer attract pollinators, adding vertical interest to water-wise gardens.
