Propagation Notes

  • Plant Type: Shrub

  • Propagation: Cuttings

  • Hardiness: Semi Hardy H6 (-10)

  • Flowering Season: Summer to autumn

Hardier yucca like Yucca gloriosa and Y. filamentosa require full sun and any well drained soil.

2023-03-20: The yucca leaves again have a lot of spots on. Cut off most of the leaves with spots but it does not look very good. Strangely, the Yucca under the trees is much more hardy and tolerent. Looks like different species. Need to investigate this deeper.
