  • Description

  • Notes

This attractive succulent has foliage resembling blue green grass with white fraying fibers along margins that reaches. Red, bell shaped flowers rise above foliage in spring and summer on arching stems with overall height of 3'. This plant tolerates full to part sun with well draining soil. It is drought tolerant once it's established but will do better with occasional summer watering. Flowers attract hummingbirds. Tolerates alkaline soil. Will naturalize slowly.
