Hesperaloe 'Brakelights'

Hesperaloe parviflora 'Brakelights'  Also known as Stoplights Dwarf Red Yucca. Brilliant, brake light-red flowers beautifully grace this lovely plant. This compact and newer variety tends to put on a spectacular show with its abundant blooms, hardly ever making seedpods, which means you'll enjoy a longer flowering season. If you want to create striking mass plantings for your xeriscape or waterwise garden, this plant is a fantastic choice! It also does wonderfully in containers and stays green all year round. This plant thrives in average to lean, well-drained soil and is quick to grow. During its first growing season, make sure to give it regular water to help establish a strong root system. After that, you can ease back on watering since it can handle moderate dry spells, but it does appreciate a little drink now and then. For a tidy look, be sure to snip off any spent bloom stalks. Keep in mind that young plants are often a tasty treat for rabbits and deer, so be sure to protect them from these curious critters.
