BUY YUCCAS, CORDYLINES or both - plants down to -20°C 

Great! The Faxon, Bacatta and Elata are Native to the Region and can handle the wild Temp swings we experience in the winter...😊

Cordylines fail here in New Mexico, gets to cold, Yucca Faxon, Baccata and Hespera hold up very well😊

My 2 red cordylines, have had it, the one has spear pulled today, i think ill give the Yuccas a look at too, Thanks for the video!

All the yuccas you've bought do really well up here at 55°N Matt. Rostratas do great. Yucca gloriosa variagata have never shown any winter damage in 5 years here. I have a large filifera australis which again has had no issues with the winter. If I remember rightly you've got a couple of small Spanish Bayonet yuccas. These will show some frost damage on their leaves more easily than the other yuccas you have particularly given the size you have. This winter though despite it being the coldest for years they've done well here with no winter damage. In previous milder years when they were smaller however they had some fair damage after the winter that had to be cut off. Good luck with yours

The Hespera is from the northern Mexico southern Texas, very durable plant ,haven't had any issues, very prolific off shoot production...

Surprisingly my yuccas have done very well this winter even though some of my oalms have spear pulled.

Got a filifera and rostrata from Blue Nurseries too. I was told the filifera needs really good drainage and you can probably get away with less drainage on the rostratas, Glorious and filementosa

back to twig farming (growing deciduous exotics like big leaf magnolias and catalpa) and yuccas

Yucca are way better than cordylines for our climat (i'm from belgium), the only "downside" is they are all green. Have you tried Phornium too? They are a good subtitutes for cordylines if you want some red or pink color.

Yuccas dont really suit my garden I cant find anywhere to put them, will be interesting to see how you can integrate them into your tiki style jungle garden thanks Matt!

The yucca's have the flowers too

Yucca’s are better for cold/dry/and hot country’s but the Cordyline and Yucca but do good in my garden ....i dont have a problem with none ....they grow like weed in my garden ...super super strong plants ...yucca nr 1

Would cactus mix be good for yucca rostrata? Or can you recommend a different mix? Your plants are beautiful btw.

5:47 - looks like Yucca filamentosa to me, similar hardiness to Gloriosa but wont trunk, stays low and just expands over time.

being growing exotics since the 1980's and after a freeze people go back to yuccas and deciduous

My variegated yucca has got all brown leaves ,what is causing it, and what Can I do.
