Yucca, Adam's Needle, Devil's Shoestring, Spoonleaf Yucca, Needle Palm 'Color Guard'

I am not a fan of yuccas but this one works so well in my rock garden that I have to give it a thumbs up. It grows under a deciduous tree...Read More so it is in mostly sun in winter and actually in shade in summer. Furthermore it is on a steep slope on the rock garden, and I almost never water it. Nevertheless it is always healthy looking and it brightens up an otherwise dark spot. It also sends off seedlings on occasion. So far I haven't gotten any of these seedlings to survive -- they probably need to be babied more.

We have one growing in full sun and one under birch trees that only receives afternoon sun. Both are doing very well, although the one i...Read Moren full sun is larger and fuller. They both bloom every other year.

People have been trying to get me to move the one under the birches to full sun, but I love the way it brightens up that corner. You can see it all the way from the house. And it keeps flowering, so how miserable can it be? I'm afraid it's stuck there until it complains.

They definitely don't like wet feet, but we have one planted in a pot that has just started sending up a flower spike. It's going to be beautiful!

Excellent variegated foliage. Very strong golden-yellow color is one of the most stiking yucca varieties. Give good drainage.

This plant grows well for me in dry shade (recommendations for full sun above notwithstanding). But then, Northern Nevada is dry, dry DR...Read MoreY, and almost everything benefits from a little shade...The gold and green combination really lights up that area of the garden.
