Gorgeous pic in the Plant Delights brochure.that it may make it in zone 7.Would like to try it...in 5b, 6a :D "We are very pleased to offer a new species of yucca that was recently discovered by plantsman, Eric Keith, and subsequently named in 2003 from a few small populations (less than 2,000 plants) in Newton and Jasper Counties in east Texas. In the wild, Yucca cernua occurs on acidic clay soils in open piney forests. In the garden, our 2009 planted specimens have made lovely, solitary, 2' tall x 4' wide rosettes of glaucous foliage. When mature, the clumps are topped with dramatic 10' tall flower spikes of large white bells. After flowering, the clump often produces additional basal rosettes. Yucca cernua is a US Endangered/Threatened candidate, which, if adopted will limit distribution, propagation, and free market access via the "government knows best" philosophy.Pot Size: 3.5" (24 fl. oz/709.77 ml)In StockZone: 7-10, possibly colder, Height: 24", Culture: Sun to Part Sun, Origin: USA# 9873" darn...image didn't work!Barb

Quite the nursery, thanks for the link.
Do they put your name on a waiting list for new stock?

Listing some very nice palms...

Andy, I'm curious whether you need to get/pay for a phytosanitary certificate for shipping palms or yuccas in soil to UK from Germany.
Can't remember if we've discussed the topic previously as it applies to Europe/UK.

Barb

Barb.... No there is no restriction on movement of plants in Europe. I remember getting a Butia Eriospatha from a UK dealer who in turn got it from South America. After it was killed in the 2010 Winter I dug it up only to find the roots suffocated in what can be described as red concrete... probably happy in it down there but not here.
Haven't tried to order yet but I'm interested in the multi palm order.

Oooh, I'm so jealous Andy.
Let us know what you're ordering...living vicariously
Guess you've found some more space... 😆

We Canadians are so screwed by "the system"...no plants ever make it with soil.
So plants arrive here bareroot... crispy...and stone-dead.

Very nice Tim.
My filamentosa are just sending up a flower stalk.
The yuccas in town aren't that far along yet.

You're probably a couple of weeks ahead from your warm weather and rain.

Looking forward to seeing all those gorgeous blooms.

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.

Tim, will do.
They all seem to have put on the brakes with the recent cool nights.

4 inches of rain in ONE night?
😯 😯
I can't even imagine what that's like.
We had 4 inches over about 5 or 6 days.
And I thought we were going to have to build an ark. 😆

Hi Barb,

I'm sure your area could use the rain since you don't get much?

We are up to 9.32 inches (23.67cm) for the month of June.......it's moist here. 😆

Here's an update on Yucca cernua:

Good looking Yucca. I have one seedling of this species from Mesa Garden. Tim, your blooming Y. cernua is the same mother plant that bloomed two years ago, or sucker?

Hi Henoh,

I think the cernua bloom is off a 'new' offshoot. I'm not sure though. 😕
