Mark grows a variously kind of plants, but have been moving twice in 5 years, so most of his Yucca plants are mainly kept in pots. As he does not have a place to store his plants for the winter, they are kept outside all year. This cultivation method does give problems with the more sensitive species of Yucca, which may loose their roots or the rosettes.
Climate:
Mark live in the eastern part of the Netherlands and according to the winter temperatures map in the book "The Tropical Look" he live on the border of a Z7, Z8 zone.
