Comments:
Leaves covered with dense white hairs, the undersides are highly textured. It has many gnarly, fang-like protuberances on the undersides of the leaves. Although it can attain a height of over 6', it is a slow grower and may remain within 2'-3' for several years. Has drought resistance. Excellent choice for growing in containers.
