This was on the road to La Pena in southern Tamaulipas. Picture was taken in May 2014.

Anyone know the cold hardiness on Nolina Nelsonii? I’ve read in some places it’s sub 0 F, other places say 0 F, and I’ve read 10F. Also heard some died in the Austin freeze of 2021 and those temps got down to 0.
Thanks!

I don’t know of any that died, although the shaded one at Barton Springs Nursery slowly started dying about 6 months later. I had a friend with a Nolina matapensis that died.

It is indeed! So many of my favourite plants are from just a few square miles around there - Agave montana, Agave gentryi, Nolina nelsonii, Nolina hibernica, Dasylirion quadrangulatum. You can see them all in one day!
I'm not sure it is safe any more. Last time I was there by La Joya at the top of the mountain we encountered some paramilitary police in an amoured truck, wearing kevlar armour and carrying automatic weapons. I don't think they were looking at agaves

Either that or the agaves have gotten a lot tougher.
