First I've read of a weevil infecting yuccas. 😯

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

I don't know yet. 😕 It has been so cold/warm here it has been very hard on my plants. It looks dead but the spears don't pull yet. I am sure if the top is dead it will send suckers up, but I think I will replace it with an other...maybe? 😆

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.

I think we are warm again, but I thought that many a times now. 😆 Weeds seem to have no problem with this weather. 🙄

Yup, seems to be spring, finally, Aaron.
The desert will be in bloom soon; look forward to your photos of that phenomenon.

They're even f/casting a bit of a heatwave here.
Glad to be out of the longjohns. 😆

Yes...it has warmed up nicely! But my Faxon yucca has now rotted with the warmth. All three trunks pulled from the ground, but I would not put it past sending suckers up. If this happens I will be giving them away because I will try with something else? 😀

The warmth has made it rot?
Probably accelerated the damage...dammit.

Maybe Big Mamas are the answer for us all.

Sorry to hear that Aaron. I just planted mine this year because I was tired of it not growing. I'm gonna run it through the gauntlet and see what happens. I didn't have a good place for it so its in a warm but wet microclimate in my yard. It appears to have survived the torrential downpour and standing water so far.

You are right, accelerated the damage. It was bac-t rot. 😡

Three cheers for "Big Mamas" 😀

Thanks, it will give room for something new. 😉

I hope your faxon does better. 😀

Lets hope we get some, and I will ship them off this fall.

PS, not a mark on my j-tree. 😀
