Desert Spoon Sotol

Desert spoon has a dense rosette of graceful, attractive blue-green leaves and a short, woody trunk. Often confused with yuccas, sotols have long slender leaves that arch gracefully from a central trunk, making a symmetrical, rounded form. The leaves have sharp spines or teeth along their margins, and are spoon-like at the base. Extremely tolerant of drought, heat, and soil type, they must have well-drained soil and full sun to thrive.
