Description

Beschorneria yuccoides 'Flamingo Glow' is a striking, evergreen succulent perennial prized for its dramatic, arching foliage and spectacular, hot-pink flower spikes. This clump-forming, yucca-like plant features rosettes of long, sword-shaped, fleshy, gray-green leaves with a distinctive, broad, creamy-yellow to golden-yellow central stripe. In late spring through summer, mature plants produce tall, arching, bright coral-pink to flamingo-pink stems rising 4-6 feet above the foliage, bearing pendulous clusters of tubular, greenish to red flowers that are highly attractive to hummingbirds. The flower bracts open sequentially, starting green and transitioning to pink and red over several weeks, extending the display. Exceptionally drought-tolerant and deer-resistant, it is an outstanding choice for xeriscape gardens, succulent gardens, Mediterranean landscapes, coastal gardens, and as a dramatic specimen in containers.
