Puya mirabilis

An unusual, spiky bromeliad from the Andes with soft, silvery-green leaves and a dramatic presence. After 3-5 years of healthy growth, it will produce 1.5m tall flower spikes with luminous yellow-green blooms that glow in evening light. Drought-tolerant and cold-hardy down to around -5C with good drainage. A rare architectural plant that thrives on minimal care and maximum sunshine.
