Does anyone know how I should plant a red yucca, should the soil line be above the crown or below. I was thinking below but the lady I got these from said above. I just don't want them to rot.

The crown needs to be above the soil line. 😉
Below and they will rot. Almost always better shallow than to deep. 😀

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.

Aaron's right, but I'll offer a little rhyme.
Plant it high, it won't die.
Plant it low, it won't grow.
I dunno who gets credit for it but its helped me out numerous times!

Ditto.
Never below the soil line.
