In the space of a month my Yucca Gloriosa has gone from a fine looking juvenile specimen to something resembling a painter's pallette with a weird growth patternHere is a pic of my plant in Julpic of the plant todaonly thing I can think of is that I removed a side shoot as I wanted to keep a single stemmed plant. Has it shocked the plant?

Hi Jim

Very well,oh,are you talking about the baby from the seeds you sent?

I ended up with 2 from you and the one from Kory in Minnesota.

I will try and remember to get a pic of the 3 little guys.

I know one of them is the big momma hybrid,one is from Kory and the other
is one of the 2 left out of the 3 different seed types you sent.

If you were referring to the blue Yucca in the cactus bed the is supposed to be
the blue beaked Y.Rostrata.

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.

You know,when you look at the growth of the cactus/how much easier
they are to take care of then palms,I sometimes think I should have made the
whole center island the cactus bed-that would have given them more room....
when they get big 😯 -really every plant in there could be considered a specimen plant.

It looks lie somebody grafted Recurvifolia into Aloifolia. Too much water and a lack of sun?

If you could get some sun that sucker would really blast off!

Watch it as it gets older,they have a habit of falling over with all the luxuriant growth.

Mine snapped it's second year and still grew over 6' in 3 years!

Jim... what you see is how I received the plant. It was sent over from Germany. My gut feeling is that they had a mad ,bad, feeding session while in its pot... bigger plant more money for it 😉
