It showcases an architectural shape with green to blue-grey foliage, forming a stunning symmetrical crown without spikiness.

Blue Nolina is drought-tolerant once established, so water deeply but infrequently. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings.
Blue Nolina will benefit from an application of an All Purpose, Slow-Release fertiliser every 9-12 months.
To prune a Blue Nolina, remove the lower leaves close to the trunk for a neat appearance.
