Yucca variegata......


Yucca variegata...... (Yucca gloriosa (Spanish dagger))

My new baby, a very well grown plant from our local B & Q we were in the store 2 weeks ago and they had just taken delivery of these, was tempted then, but resisted.......decided to go back today and guess what only one left!! lucky or what?

Amy I was very pleased to find it as it was tucked away, I knew I should have bought it when they first came in...will keep it in the pot for a while, and plant it next year perhaps.....

Sometimes it pays to wait before planting I have often changed my mind about where I want putting it a day later ...

Mine developed a baby, so now I have two like this and I've just planted them, one in the soil, one in a big pot. I love them but they are vicious aren't they! ;)

They certainly are, how old is the one that has had the baby K? they do say hardy on the label, lets hope it is......

That was the amazing thing. After one year in the ground it had a 'twin', the same size....incredible eh?

Janey many thanks, San takes a few years before they flower and they do need some sun!!

iv had mine about 3 years now and might repot next spring, but even if it doesnt flower its worth it for the colour and structure of the plant :o))

San they do outgrow their pots quite quickly, I want to put ours in the ground next year, all being well.
