Excellent for use in a xeriscape. It blooms continuously. Shown here in December. Note the brown seedpods. (San Antonio, Tx.)

You can see why it is called "Lion's Tail". It has some water droplets on it. (San Antonio, Tx.)

The Lion's Tail seedpods add interest to the plant in the fall. Shown here in December with a furry "tail" in the upper right hand corner. (San Antonio, Tx.)

I had this in a container for 2 months before planting it in the ground. I like to call it "Old Faithful" because it has not stopped blooming!

Lion's Tail flowering. Flowers start at the top of the pod first and work their way down.
