Plant it in sandy, well-draining soil or give it a roomy pot with a generous drainage layer of gravel or clay pebbles; among our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/green-bubble.com\/en\/collections\/outside-pots-in-baskets\"\u003eoutdoor pots and baskets\u003c\/a\u003e you will find a model sturdy enough for its full crown. It hardly needs feeding: an organic garden fertiliser in spring is enough. Now and then remove a dried leaf at the bottom with sharp scissors. The Dasylirion copes well with cold as long as the soil stays dry. If it is in a pot, place it on pot feet in winter and preferably under a canopy or against a sheltered wall. In severe frost you can temporarily cover the crown with garden fleece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWater needs of the Dasylirion Longissimum XL garden plant - 140 cm\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drought lover needs little water. During the growing season, water about once or twice a week, and only when the soil is properly dry. A plant in a pot dries out faster than one in the ground, so check the pot a little more often in warm spells. In winter it needs hardly any water. Never let water stand in the saucer, because wet roots are the biggest risk for this plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLight needs of the Dasylirion Longissimum XL garden plant - 140 cm\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGive it the sunniest spot you have, ideally facing south or west.
