Tightly packed rosettes of evergreen greenish red sword- like leaves slowly grow to form a palm-like shrub or small tree. The large panicles of beautifully scented white flowers borne during the summer are the icing on the cake. Height: 1.75m (6') in 10 years. An excellent plant as a specimen or focal point.
