Thrives in hot, dry, desert conditions, but is also surprisingly winter hardy to USDA Zone 5. The key to growing this plant well is having superior soil drainage. Excellent heat resistance and drought tolerance. Will self-seed in the landscape. May be propagated by clump division. Tolerates urban conditions. Noteworthy Characteristics Hesperaloe parviflora, commonly known as red yucca, coral yucca, hummingbird yucca, redflower false yucca, and samandoque, is a yucca-like evergreen perennial succulent. It is native to the Chihuahuan desert in western Texas south into northeastern Mexico where it is typically found growing in desert areas, prairies, rocky slopes, and mesquite groves. Although it is closely related to yuccas, it is a member of the century plant family not the yucca family. Narrow, arching, sword-like, blue-green leaves grow in basal clumps to 3-4’ tall spreading to 6’ wide. Although the leaves are evergreen, they often acquire purple or reddish-bronze tints in cold winter climates. Each leaf has distinctive thread-like marginal hairs. Red to pink tubular flowers in branching inflorescences rise well above the foliage clump on red flower stalks to 4-6’ tall.
