Plant details
Although they are often reagrded as plants for hot dry places, yuccas are hardier than they appear. They will thrive in most sheltered well-drained spots and only tend to fail in cold exposed inland positions, where they are better grown as container plants. They are handsome, architectural, foliage plants for dry sunny borders and are particularly suitable for gardens by the sea. This species makes an impressive thick-stemmed plant, rarely branching and crowned with a thick clump of sharp-pointed leaves. Its eye-catching flower-spikes can reach 2.1m (7ft) high. It's great for creating a jungle atmosphere in a sheltered garden.
