Yucca queretaroensis

[Fouquieria]

I got ten 10-packs of assorted yucca, agave, & dasylirions seeds from rarepalms spring of 2009 and sowed them. Three of the packets didn't germinate, but the rest did. All ten of the seeds in the Yucca queretaroensis packet germinated fast and vigorously but I didn't think it was this species because the leaves were broad and flat...typical generic looking yucca.

Now, after over a year I think they truly are Yucca queretaroensis. All the newer leaves are very thin and needle like. Right now, they are sort of three or four angle-edged looking with just a hint of blue. All of the little seedlings did fine on the bottom balcony last winter.

Looks cool Ron! Some Acacia do that same thing where the first few leaves don't match what the eventual leaves are going to look like.
