Perhaps the most handsome yucca, Yucca rostrata (Beaked Yucca) is a very ornamental, slow-growing, evergreen tree-like yucca forming a perfectly symmetrical pom-pom, full of hundreds of 2 ft. long (60 cm), sharp-tipped, pale bluish-green leaves. This shimmering rosette is mounted atop a tree trunk, which is covered with the soft gray fibers of the old leaves, creating a silver haze. This Yucca is topped in late spring with yellow-orange flowering stalks that rise above the foliage on mature plants, and bear large clusters of white flowers. Although it can branch, Yucca rostrata is usually seen with a single trunk. Often confused with Yucca rigida, Yucca rostrata lacks the stiffness in the leaves characterizing Yucca rigida, making this plant less dangerous than most others of the genus. This species is highly tolerant of drought, heat and frost.
Easily grown in dry, well-drained soils in full sun. Occasional to infrequent summer irrigation needed, but will grow faster if well watered. Prefers alkaline conditions.
Deer and rabbit resistant, this plant attracts hummingbirds
Provide a striking focal point in beds and borders, gravel gardens, xeriscape gardens, Mediterranean gardens or containers.
Easy to propagate from seeds or cuttings.
Toxic to dogs, toxic to cats, toxic to horses.
Native to South western Texas and northern Mexico.
