These three are exceeding my expectations.
I'm thrilled with their growth.

Thanks Jay...not bad for only 2 years in the ground.
Seems plants do better if they don't need my care.

they are beauties Barb! 😀

keep the updates coming.

and yes........Y. rostrata needs NO maintenance at all. I do nothing with mine all year except look at it! Other Yuccas can be very high in maintenance like filamentosa and flaccida.......cut leaves, remove old leaves, etc... too much work. 😡

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.

Thanks folks...these are getting so nice I doubt I will ever leave the "winter assistance" off. 😆
Especially if a trunk ever starts.

I'm blown away how fast these guys grow...
