Beaked yucca, Yucca rostrata, is a tall, attractive yucca, bearing a crown of narrow, silver blue, sword-shaped leaves in contrast to a creamy white bark. Tall clusters of white flowers appear in summer, which may develop into fruit in milder regions. It’s perfect for growing in exotic planting schemes and dry gardens. Younger specimens may be grown in a pot.
Grow Yucca rostrata in well-drained soil in full sun. Remove dead leaves for tidiness, but otherwise there’s no need to prune. Although hardy, it may need winter protection in cooler regions.
