Short description:
Plant: caulescent Leaves: light green with a pale yellow
edge, they have a short somewhat sharp spine at the tip of the leaves,.
Inflorescence:
Like normal green Yucca recurvifolia
Flowers: Like normal green Yucca
recurvifolia.
Where do I grow the plant:
The first plant were planted in the spring 2008, in a well drained
bed up against a south facing wall. The rest of my plants including the
large "mother" are grown in pots which is in the unheated greenhouse during
the winter.
Hardiness:
Unknown at the time of writing fall 2009. I easy get Yucca leaf fungus
in beginning of the spring, but if grown close to a house this gives it
some protection to the fungus attack.
Notes:
When grown in pots you need to water daily, as the plant quickly dry
out the soil.
Hybrids which have genes from Yucca recurvifolia
"marginata":
