So glad you shared this info!! My yucca is planted in wet soil which would explain why he has had no growth for two years! I’ll be moving him tomorrow! Thanks so much!
I have 5 of them in my zone 5 yard. Absolutely love them. A note on deer resistants - the deer will eat the flowers in summer. And if you can believe it 2 or 3 year ago in winter the deer actually ate quite a bit of the actual foliage on 2 of the plants! Luckily they recovered nicely and haven’t been eaten since. Great plant
We garden in zone 3...Alberta, Canada. Nice video, thanks. Ours overwinter fine. However, we live in a dry climate and it’s planted in well drained area slightly mounded. A note: yucca glauca, a native plant, grows as far north as the Canadians border. The absolute key is to keep the underside dry in winter. Snow is fine but mulch with gravel under the base.
i have a plant very similar to this but it is much larger with green and yellow long thick leaves. I have been keeping it indoors since I had it. It appears as it was dying off so I repotted and it is growing nice and healthy I had it outdoors throughout this summer but was wondering if it could withstand the winter weather. I wish I could upload a picture.
I think I will get some next spring and use them in a container with some creeping Jenny to give a pineapple look :D thank you for the great video Jim .
I am glad to know there are pretty coloured yuccas. I don't care for the regular ones. Now, I wonder if planting these near vegetable gardens can deter critters from munching at my veggies.
Thanks for the video. I am catching up on all the info I've missed... in your propagation series (great) do you have a schedule for cutting them back to make them bushier or just let them grow naturally?
happy thanksgiving, Jim. any experience with oleander in your part of NC / zone 7b? i’ve heard mixed things about some of the varieties like “hardy red”. would they die to the ground each year?
Jim, HELP! How do you kill Yucca!?!?!?! We've tried twice, dug up all the roots and both times, not only did they NOT die, it seems they doubled!!!! They are super old and ugly in front of my house, mostly on a steep slope and we can't get rid of them!!!! I told my fiance that we will likely have to dig up the entire slope to get rid of them. Possibly have to build a retaining wall and perhaps a car port.. ;) We totally need another car space anyway.... lol That's an expensive dream not likely to come true though... PLEASE HELP!

Great video like always I have 2 on them in my landscape really easy
Awesome. Thanks for watching and commenting.

The holly with yellow variegation looks chlorotic.

How do you propagate these yucca color guards?

lol you can tell it's getting cold, Holly moved 3 feet from her normal spot on the porch ;-)
The opposite really. She loves it out there when it's cold. I used the blower before I shot that and it freaks her out.
@@JimPutnam ah that's first time I can remember seeing her not on the porch, I'm with her after the summer we had in the south it's nice being cold.
Have you done a video on mums
No I haven't. Kind of funny, because I just sold about 5000. That is probably why I don't talk about them anymore. Thanks for watching.

Jim, it's been a year and you may be my only hope in getting rid of this Yucca problem I have! Please help!
I bought one and potted it about 4, maybe 5, years ago and it's never bloomed.Any idea why?
