Content: Both Yucca aloifolia and Yucca filamentosa can produce offsets that you may wish to prune away to keep them in-bounds. Yucca flower stalks turn ugly after flowering is over and they can be cut to the ground unless you intend to collect the seeds. When you prune a yucca, it goes without saying that you need to protect yourself from the leaves which are often sharp. Tip #5 - What is the Best Location for a Yucca in Your Garden
Yucca flaccida 'Wilder's Wonderful'
Sharp-tipped leaves mean you should plant yucca plants away from sidewalks, paths, mailboxes and driveways. Individual Yucca plants can grow 3' wide and with offsets, a Yucca clump can be several times that so give your garden visitors plenty of space to walk around your Yucca. Tip #6 - How to Propagate Yucca
Yucca filamentosa var. concava
You can propagate Yucca via division, root cuttings, stem cuttings and seeds. Stems and offsets can be cut, the bottom few inches stripped of leaves and the cuttings planted and treated gently until they root. You can collect yucca seeds, and plant them out but be patient as the seeds are slow to sprout. You can also use a shovel to dig up a section of rhizome, cut it into 3 inch sections and plant them.
