Read recently on this forum about successful transformation of Y. Filementosas to trunking Yuccas.Sounds great especially with their rapid clumping habit so can soon get heaps of plants.Would be interested to hear of others successes in this.
Late autumn here in NZ so will have to leave my trial for a few months!Cheers Ian Mc
I agree 😀
I would like to see how other people have done this? I read of people doing this before I gave it a try.

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.

I recently had my yucca filamentosa put on the rarepalmseeds.com website. Here is the link;

I would love to find out how to get it to trunk!

Hey Aaron,
How are your yuccas doing this summer? Do you have any updated pics of your garden for us to see. Would love to see some more pics if you have any new ones. 😀
Regards,
Jay
Most of my yuccas are doing good 😀 my trunking filamentosa has not done much of anything this year, but I will keep playing around with it. But some have done very well, like my joshua trees.
I will get some new pics up later this summer or sooner I hope 😀

Sounds good Aaron. Keep us posted. 😀
Here is a pic of my best trunking Filamentosa-2005, but has not done much this year 🙁

That's so cool. 😀 I like seeing updated pics of your trunking Filamentosa. I noticed the other day one of my filamentosas is sending up another flower stalk. 😀
Hey Aaron,
I forgot to mention what i found growing in Kelowna around last October. When i was driving through a trailor park i noticed what i believe to be a filamentosa with about a 5 inch trunk on it. 😀
I'll try to get some pics of it this spring/summer.
Regards,
Jay
That would be cool Jay 🙂

Getting to the end of our summer.Although a garden round the corner has nice flowering Y.Filamentosas nil on our plants scattered round the garden after several years regular flowering! Any ideas thanks?
Do they get lots of water? They might need to dry out for a bit or a resting time before they will flower. Stress the plant then give it what it wants then it should flower.

Thanks Aaron.We've had pretty severe drought conditions for months so I may well have over compensated with garden hose.
Off topic:Jim Rutledge from BC just had 2 finishing golf holes of Eagle/Birdy to move to the lead at Clearwater Golf a couple of miles up the road.
Ok... here is my trunking filamentosa 2006, it did not do much and my be going down hill, but is still alive 🙂 The two top trunks have died. I may have tried to push it to much?
