Content: If you're met with resistance, then it's likely your pups have successfully rooted. Long-Term Care
Grow newly rooted yuccas in individual pots using a potting medium especially designed for succulents and cacti or, after four weeks, plant the cuttings in your yard in well-drained, sandy soil. Outdoor yuccas need a minimum of six hours of direct sunlight daily and grow well in areas that receive full sun or partial shade. Situate houseplants in a bright location such as a south- or west-facing window. Water indoor yuccas when the top inch of potting soil is dry and let it dry completely before watering again. For outdoor plants, apply water about every two to three weeks, allowing the ground to dry between waterings. Cut back on water in winter for both outdoor and indoor plants when they aren't growing vigorously and give them only enough water to keep their leaves from drooping. Yuccas in the landscape generally don't require fertilizer, but you can feed houseplants monthly during the growing season with an all-purpose liquid houseplant fertilizer diluted to one-quarter strength. Warning
Be aware that yuccas are toxic to dogs, cats and horses. Don't locate them where those animals might eat the leaves.
