Yucca elata looks great in a mixed collection of arids in the xerophytic garden or conservatory.
Care & Size Guidance
As with other arid plants, grow it outside in the UK in full sun in gritty soil and water generously only during hot and dry weather.
It grows to a good size after a number of years; in the wild it ascends to about 10 metres tall, although of course considerably less in the UK.
Even so, thanks to its great tolerance of cold, it can be grown here, as long the soil is free draining.
