Sunray Dracaena has multicolor variegated leaves and is an easy to care for indoor plant with low watering requirements. A slow grower, it eventually forms a tall trunk with a tuft of foliage on top reminiscent of a Dr. Seuss Lorax tree. A great plant for beginners. Preferring bright indirect light, it will also tolerate low-moderate light conditions. Avoid overwatering by allowing the top half of the soil to dry before watering. Many houseplants are not safe for pets, and Dracaena is known to be toxic to cats.

‘Purpleicious’ Variegated Society Garlic has stunning purple color that makes it a stand out from other variegated selections. Society Garlic is a clumping evergreen with narrow grass like leaves and small umbels of lavender flowers held on narrow stalks. Excellent as a low border plant and an accent in rock gardens and near water features. When disturbed, the leaves have a strong garlic scent that acts as a deterrent to slugs, snails, cats and deer. While some people find the scent pleasant, others do not and prefer not to plant it too close to entries. Easy to care for and drought tolerant once established.

‘Viridis’ Japanese Maple has vivid green dramatically dissected leaves that shift to shades of gold to crimson in autumn. Its finely textured lacy appearance is exceptionally delicate, with weeping foliage that flutters gracefully in even the slightest breeze. Perfect for a large container, small berm or a prominent spot near a walkway or patio. Japanese maples prefer well drained enriched soil with regular watering and protection from extreme heat and harsh mid afternoon sun. Apply a slow-release fertilizer in the spring.

Native to the Sonoran Desert of Baja and the Pacific Coast of Mexico, the spines of Hairbrush Cactus were once used to make a comb. It grows in a columnar branching shape and has nocturnal white blooms that open after sunset and close by midday. In the wild it can become quite massive, but it’s slow growth makes it manageable in the landscape and it is unlikely to exceed a moderate size in one person’s lifetime. Adaptable to heat and drought, Hairbrush Cactus does not thrive in areas with high winter rainfall.

Agave celsii albicans x attenuata is a relatively new hybrid of two attractive soft leaved agaves. Although Agave attenuata has low cold tolerance, Agave celsii albicans is more hardy which makes this a better choice for Central Valley growing conditions. Because the leaves are not heavily armed with sharp spines, it is a friendlier choice in a xeric landscape frequented by people and pets.

Agave celsii Nova forms a lovely solitary rosette with soft blue leaves. It is more tolerant of heat, sun and cold than it appears, making it a nice choice in the succulent landscape. Like all agaves, it must be acclimated slowly to full sun and may experience some sunburn when being moved from one location to another. If so, this damage will grow out and be replaced with clean new leaves.
Reference note: The species Agave celsii is now classified botanically as Agave mitis. This cultivar, which may be a hybrid, is still commonly referred to as Agave celsii ‘Nova’ in the nursery trade.
