Biology:Beschorneria

From HandWiki

[1]Beschorneria is a genus of succulent plants belonging to the family Asparagaceae, subfamily Agavoideae,[2] native to semi-arid areas of Mexico and Central America.[3][4] They are generally large evergreen perennials forming clumps of grey-green leaves, with tall flower-spikes to 1.5 metres (4.9 ft). Marginally hardy, they may require winter protection in areas subject to frost.
