Dasylirion acrotriche is a slow-growing succulent featuring a stout trunk crowned by dense, spherical rosettes of bright green, ribbon-like leaves with feathery, frayed tips and sharp, spine-toothed margins and red/pink buds opening to creamy-white blooms. Flowers appear on a 10-15′ stalk that persists after flowering unless removed. Uses include focal point, barrier hedge, container, erosion control, xeriscaping. Can be used in seacoast and desert landscapes. Low to medium water use; extremely drought resistant once established. It requires fast-draining, rocky, or sandy soil. Poor growth in deep shade but tolerates light/partial shade. Moderate fire-resistant. Deer and rabbit-resistant. Resistant to Verticillium wilt. Cold hardy to 10°F.
