Yucca love

[Brandon James]

Yuccas are another one of my favorite landscaping go to here on the coast of Maine. They take the cold and moisture with ease.

Who’s growing yucca faxoniana? Is it typical to be slow growing when young….like should have bought a way bigger size slloooowww 😭🤣

[Palmensammler]

I grow two outside, grown from seed and they are really slow. Hopefully one day the speed up otherwise I won't see them flowering any more 😀

But maybe it's only a problem of temperatures and sunshine

Yep, slow N' steady.. Not a plant for the impatient Grasshopper..  Plant and enjoy while you get to enjoy it..

  Think they can start flowering at a relatively short size ..say in the 6-9ft range.. So, if you live long enough, ya' might just get lucky..

Thanks..more time i spend with plants and in garden yuccas are becoming more favourite to me..such wonderfull nature sculptures and without any worries about watering or winter..people love them here(maybe to much western movies in the 70-80-ies 🙂) ..there are some serious nurseries in Spain and Italy so you can find them relatively cheap, smaller ones of course..faxoniana maybe keeping price very high more than the others...

Looks like you have a perfect climate.

It was solid 9a mediterranean type..but since 2018 we are at 10a as for absolute minimume..with long hot sumners and yuccas love it...

[Palmensammler]

I remember that when I was a little bit north of Split for holidays with my family many years ago the climate was very warm.  But in this area orange trees had been the dominating plants.

But we all loved the area.

VERY nice   Lots of good stuff tucked away in there.  Blue walls are a great accent as well.

there were a couple yucca at a site i was working at which were going to be run over by the skid steer so i dug them up and brought them home last spring... then in the late fall i planted them up north near midland ontario canada 

i went up there yesterday and it looks like they survived the winter! although it was a mild winter...
