That'll go by very quickly, watching baby grow. 😀

So true, time will go by fast! 😯

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 you notice any damage on the Y. arkansana 'freemanii' x 'reverchonii-thompsoniana' hybrid? If any of the Yuccas I mailed you I think this MAY be the least hardy since the freemanii even gets damage here in mild zone 6b. Hopefully the other genes make it hardier.

I still have it but it did very little last year, hoping is will take off this year. Also I was going to cover it again this winter but never did, I need to check on it tomorrow. 😐
I bet it's ok. 😉

I just checked it and it looks good! It is covered but with the top open. 😉

Aaron since your climate is dry unlikely if your beautiful yucca plants will obtain any freeze damage. Take care! Love your garden/plants too!

Thanks for the info and the kind words. 😀

I couldn't resist and have bought some Y. brevifolia var. jaegeriana seeds. I always soak seeds before planting and I was more than happy seeing tiny root emerging from the seed. It tripled its size over night:

That's god news. 8) They may be the easiest to sprout out of the yuccas, I bought some off e-bay and everyone I planted has sprouted. 😉

Aaron, IMO everything looks better than this time last year.
Well done!

J-trees are soooo beautiful.
Did you see Bayfield's post on when he was cleaning out the landscaping at his neighbor's place?
Those J-trees are so tall you can walk under them.

Yours will be huge one day too...eat all your vegetables 😆 😆
Good work on your minimal protection, thank goodness they're all right.
