Content: The Yucca in the Pot
The Yucca needs a lot of space. In the first years, when the roots spread in the pot, a frequent repotting into bigger pots is necessary. While repotting you should be very careful, so that the taproot is not getting damaged. This root can be very long on some kinds of Yuccas. If the root is fully developed and the plant is mature, a repotting every three years is recommended. The vigorously growing Yucca does not like narrowness at all. In the first one to two years the plant is very sensitive and therefore rather unsuitable for the garden, even though one can also find some great exemplars there. Watering
Since the plant takes care of collecting water out of the substratum by itself, from which it can live on a long time, watering too often is rather harmful than helpful and is not good at all for the Yucca. Rottenness, particularly on the important root, could be the consequence. The Yucca grows best in moist but not too wet soil.
