Overview

The Calibanus hookeri is a robust, slow-growing perennial boasting a thick, woody caudex (base) that can ultimately span up to 24 inches in diameter. It sprouts grass-like blue-green leaves and small, white flowers. Suited for USDA zones 9-11, this drought-tolerant plant prefers full sun and well-draining soil. Calibanus hookeri adds unique structural interest to rock gardens and xeriscapes, reaching up to 3 feet in height and spread.
