This is one of the first successful pollinations, that were made in my garden in the summer of 2003. The seed parent were a garden form of Yucca flaccida,and the pollen parent a Yucca glauca, which I did get from the former nurseryman P. C. O. Nørgaard, from the Isle of Mors, in Denmark, it had flowered many times in P.C.O.'s unheated greenhouse.

Of this cross did I get 10 seed pods, which were given an individual number:

#1780 Yucca "Jensen hybrid" (49 Yucca flaccida x 1461 Yucca glauca)
#1781 Yucca "Jensen hybrid" (49 Yucca flaccida x 1461 Yucca glauca)
#1782 Yucca "Jensen hybrid" (49 Yucca flaccida x 1461 Yucca glauca)
#1783 Yucca "Jensen hybrid" (49 Yucca flaccida x 1461 Yucca glauca)
#1784 Yucca "Jensen hybrid" (49 Yucca flaccida x 1461 Yucca glauca)
#1785 Yucca "Jensen hybrid" (49 Yucca flaccida x 1461 Yucca glauca)
#1786 Yucca "Jensen hybrid" (49 Yucca flaccida x 1461 Yucca glauca)
#1787 Yucca "Jensen hybrid" (49 Yucca flaccida x 1461 Yucca glauca)
#1788 Yucca "Jensen hybrid" (49 Yucca flaccida x 1461 Yucca glauca)
#1789 Yucca "Jensen hybrid" (49 Yucca flaccida x 1461 Yucca glauca)

I have not been able to see any significant difference on any of the above, and they are very similar in growth.

The seeds from this cross were sown in 2004, and the first flowers are expected in 2009 in the garden of  Steen Stjerne.
