HESPERALOE PARVIFLORA DESERT FLAMENCO®

Desert Flamenco®

Desert Flamenco® is an exciting new in-

troduction from the Hesperaloe breeding

program here at Mountain States. This

compact selection’s grey-green rosette of

leaves top out at 30” tall and wide. Com-

pared to regular Red Yucca, this plant dis-

plays loads of side branching on the flower

spikes creating waterfalls of showy, tubu-

lar, pinkish-orange flowers. It produces

very little seed which allows for an extend-

ed bloom time from spring all the way

through the fall. This tough plant thrives in

full sun, reflected heat, and even tolerates

some light shade if drainage is adequate. As

with all Hesperaloes, hummingbirds are

drawn to the nectar-rich blossoms. Plant

these en masse to really see the delightful

dancer that is Desert Flamenco®.
