Notes
This dramatic, clumping yucca grows slowly to 10', but can eventually reach 24' tall. Leaves are dark green to blue-green with sharp, pointed ends. Succulent white flowers are abundant on terminal spikes in spring. It is drought tolerant but needs good drainage. It is tree like and has a rigid spiky asymmetrical appearance. Native to Texas and New Mexico into Mexico.
