Nolina nelsonii (Nelson’s Blue Bear Grass)

Description

From the Mexican state of Tamaulipas comes this really cool and far-out bear grass (a little Deadhead gardener lingo). The mature architectural specimens resemble giant ponytail palms, with rigid but not sharply pointed 3′ long, silvery blue-green, grass-like foliage to 1″ wide. When the 10′-12′ tall clumps mature, a 4′ tall bloom stalk will rocket forth with thousands of tiny white flowers!
