Yucca rostrata - 5L

Yucca rostrata are a tree-like shrub that grow to around 3.5m high, with one or more woody stems. The stems are topped with a near spherical rosette of narrow, smooth, spine-tipped, blue-green leaves, 60-90cm long and 1.3-2.5cm wide. The leaves are rigid near the stem but flexible after the widest point, so that they move in even a slight breeze. The flowering stalk is up to 1.5m long with white flowers in summer or autumn. Easy to maintain, this Yucca is drought tolerant once established.
