Yucca General Information

Yucca are valued as bold accents that make a structural statement in the border or as specimen plants. Upright sword-like foliage year round. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Yucca Plant Care

Maintenance free. Thrives in any kind of soil, including very dry. Division is usually not necessary but offsets (plantlets) can be removed from edges of clump in spring or fall. Remove flower stems to base after blooming. Trim winter damaged foliage in spring.

Plantable Pots

Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!

100% Guarantee

We offer a 100% unconditional guarantee for all our perennials to reach you in good condition and to grow. If you're not satisfied, we'll reship or refund immediately. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns—we share your passion for gardening and want your new plants to thrive in your border!
