Dasylirion serratifolium Specimen 65 / 160

The trunk of this specimen has taken on a life of its own, wiggling to the side creating an unsual silhouette.

Growing within the rocky slopes or shrubby woodland of Southeastern Mexico, Dasylirion serratifolium forms a perfect dense rosette of long sharp leaves. Leaf margins are serrated, while the tips grow with fine white fibres. As the plant matures spent leaves produce a thick woody trunk.

Water when soil is dry 100%. Water lightly (if at all) during winter months.

Full sun.

Use a cactus fertiliser 3 times between March - November.

Repot every 2-3 years. Use a well draining cactus compost, adding extra drainage such as perlite, pumice or grit.

See available sizes below. Please note that, due to their natural variability, specimens' height may be within 10-20% of the stated height below. 

Plant is supplied in its plastic nursery pot.
