Mike, any chance of new photos at full bloom ?
What a lovely fragrance that must be.
I think you've converted a ton of people away from using them as annuals!

You're way ahead of us if blooms are appearing on your yuccas.
Look forward to seeing them.

right now they're just about 12 inches up from the ground, not blooming yet, just reaching upward. Sorry if I misspoke! Here are a few pics of the cordyline australis in bloom. One has a green stem and the other (not yet blooming) has a purple stem. Both plants are green....Hmmm???
And My yuccas coming up from the center....

Mike it should be interesting to watch all your plants flower. I wonder if the ones you ended up saving the Cordy`s know they were on borrowed time. Seems the more stress they recieve the faster they flower IMO?

That is probably true and esp bc in the winter I basically forget about them and throw them on the front sun porch where night temps go into 30s and day temps go into 50's on sunny days. They also remain very dry in the winter.
