Aaron........that fax in the first photo sure looks hybridish to me.....what are your thoughts?
Anything is possible, but if you could see it in person it is very faxon like, wide leather like leaves. It is healthy and they just seem to be growing long leaves.
He did have the coolest thompsoniana that has leaves longer than any rostrata I have ever seen. Very cool yucca. He thought it might be a cross with a rostrata? It was a big as his faxon yuccas and they had long leaves. I thought I took a pic, I will see If I can post it.
Here is a couple from ealier this year.

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.

Did the 2009 hybrid seeds germinate for you (Y flaccida x reverchonii-thompsoniana)?

Excellent, Aaron.
Perfect spot and great raised bed.
A mild winter and it'll be huge next year, and even more hardy.

I hope my yucca faxon makes it through the winter. It is now to big for me to cover. 😐
