Wowser! A much lusted after, smaller selection of Yucca with bright yellow striping! 18-24" – a perfect size for a patio planter or the front of a Mediterranean planting. Great small specimen! Full sun, well drained soil; very drought tolerant, deer proof. Typical yucca flower spikes. Looks so good, even in winter
