My small neomexicana alive & kicking 😉 
Mystery yucca from bird's eye view
My baccata lost 90% of leaves when got flooded in late Autumn by accident. Now it's recovering:
It grows under the glass cuz doesn't like our high precipitation. Too much rain and leaves are turning brown and dying.

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.

Marceli,
Your plants looks great.
Yucca Elegantissima is one of my favorite Yuccas. This year one rosette will be in bloom, in maybe 2-3 weeks this is much earlier than usual (blooms normally in September-October) , so I might get lucky to pollinate it with another Yucca 🙂
Have a nice day
Benny

Update.
Y. baccata:
Y. uknown close-up:
They will have a roof above them soon:
Y. filata 'Big Mama'. Not too many leaves, but I hope she grew some serious roots by now. I wonder if she survives our winter.

Hello marcel,
Your plants looks great, with a very nice compact growth.
I can see on the photos, that many of your Yucca has the base of the plant above the surface.
I have a suggestion for you, based on personal experience.
I have noticed, that if a new Yucca is planted a little deeper, than one would think, with the lover leaves just below the surface, then the Yucca grow faster, and will it will grow a thicker base. A good base is very important when the Yucca in time will be in bloom. If the base is too thin-weak the heavy bloom will make the plant to tilt when it's windy or rainy weather conditions or and staking might be necessary.
Happy Yucca growing
Benny
