Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

That plant is about 7 years old , but they usually grow faster then that They pick up speed with age!
Cost here is around $7-7.50 range, or $5.00 if you pick them up from my place And if I have them in stock

Well....they grow a lot faster then that one in the pic. I have others that are only a couple of years old that are the same size I don't know what I did wrong with that one It was one I bought. The others I have are home grown, and are doing much better. Give them 10 years and you will have a plant to talk about
The first 2-4 years are the slowest growth for this plant.

I wish I had a some recent pics of my elatas, because this winter they grew a bunch of long hair from the center, or it came off the leaves. Either way they have became very hairy this winter I never seen this before

I went outside yesterday to take a pic of it, but I don't think it will show up as good as I like, maybe I will take one just for fun

Hi Jay,
I checked to see what I have in the pots, and I have only one, but that one has been eaten down by rabbits. I gave Plantasia Cactus Gardens 4-5 plants to sell for me but I think he might want a couple dollars more?
If the one comes back and I am sure it will I will save it for you
I would take you one, but Coure d' Alene is as far from me as Las Vegas If the one comes back from the rabbit attack, I will mail it to you. I checked with the post office, I can mail plants in a large envelopes with out extra cost to you. I also will be growing more of them this summer

I live about 40 miles from the border? Or close to that, it does not take long to get to Jackpot Nevada.
Jay if that one does not come back I will see about getting one from Plantasia Cactus Gardens for you. I will probably see the owner again in April

Jackpot Nevada, my favorite place to go when on my way to LV.
That would cool if you would do that for me Aaron. But if it's too much trouble to get one back then don't worry about it. Just let me know how much and what the shipping cost is to send you if the elata makes a comeback or you get another one.
Regards,
Jay

Jay,
I think it will be about $7-9 dollars for the plant and about $6 dollars for the shipping and handling. I will know more later if the one comes back or I talk to the owner of Plantasia Cactus Gardens.

Aaron, it's a toss-up whether elata or brevifolia is more beautiful.
I think it's a tie.
The wait is certainly worth it with this one.

Thanks you guys.
I love elata also but they have been so slow for me. The one in the pic is older than my biggest j-tree.

Here is another Yucca elata pic.
Second year in a row this one has bloomed. It's never going to be of size if it keeps blooming.

That is a nice shaped Elata Aaron. Mine does not look that good.... part of the problem being a rapidly growing Trachycarpus Nova which is blocking out light....bad positioning I guess
