Hi Tim,

Welcome to the forum! I believe, I've seen your work on, yucca expert, Benny Møller Jensen's website? Very cool to have you on this forum!

Wow, what an incredible collection of yuccas! 😯 Amazing variety. I'm especially intrigued by your hybrids. Until now, no one on this forum (to my knowledge) has grown any kind of hybrid. I'm really impressed too, by your successes with trunking western species rostrata and elata. They all look great!

Tim, is there any chance you'd be willing sell me some seeds or plants? I'd be especially interested in your elata, glauca, and filimentosa hybrids. I'm a budding yucca enthusiast myself! In my zone, glauca and filimentosa are proven hardy. I'm experimenting with several other species though, some of which, will require protection. Check out my desert garden if you have a chance:

Thanks and great work!

I just got back from a mini vacation in New Hampshire. Thanks to all for the nice comments.

Duncan& others, I have some seeds I can send you from some hybrids. You can plant many and select the 'hardiest' forms. You'll have to give me your mailing address.

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.

Aaron, funny that the Y. glauca x filamentosa has never flowered for me. It was seed grown from 2001 seed. I'm sure once it flowers it will send up some pups......one will have your name on it! Here's the same Yucca in June 2004 when I moved to Massachusetts and just created my garden bed. It's located in front of the Echinocactus (horse crippler) and Yucca rostrata:
