You should try one. They seem to grow good in the east.

Lol, good luck to you as well.

DesertZone

Both of them are awesome, hoping they will be with you for years to come. Maybe with time they can get air movement around the crowns. I need to get a few and try them down in AZ, if I ever get down there again.

I agree, that and building a mound for your yuccas helps. Drainage, drainage, drainage, and location, location, location. Everyone wants a house on the hill, so do desert plants. lol

DesertZone

Have faith, mine took a few years before they started growing good. Some of mine are still struggling.

Thanks, they took many years to look like that, I'm sure in time they will clump huge. If they don't, could be the soil or like you said the precipitation.

Love seeing the updates on your yuccas but I remember from an old post that you had 4 baccatas with awesome trunks but on this update I could only see 1 baccata with a trunk , is it the only one remaining from that group?? Thanks for sharing your pictures, always appreciated :) You are right, there...

My big rostrata.

Not all, but most of the ones showing growth. Most did not grow much this year, recieved damage from the warm/cold extremes last fall. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TdUZSPKZlko/Vgn0MVjrg2I/AAAAAAAAHzk/Qwl8aSR9z1s/s800/100_9000.jpg http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xoLzXh0O9HY/Vgn1sZk30pI/AAAAAAAAH1w/fMQiZIU7otw...

Thank you.

DesertZone

Nice bunch of palms you have there. Looks like year of fun!

DesertZone

Aaron.... they both look good and looks like three heads forming on the blue Yucca. I am not used to seeing Rostrata flowering so young, probably a climate thing? I have just lost a trunked green Rostrata after flowering a few years ago perhaps the root system was not good and too much moisture in ...

Here is my second biggest rostrata in bloom.

DesertZone

This was last year after my biggest rostrata bloomed, sorry no pics of the bloom. It was very nice and whiter than the one that bloomed this year.

DesertZone

Second year in a row this one has flowered. (I looked back in my records and this may have skipped a year before blooming again.)

DesertZone

Here is another Yucca elata pic.
Second year in a row this one has bloomed. It's never going to be of size if it keeps blooming.

DesertZone

I thought I seen some bougainvillea in there, very cool!

DesertZone

Good videos, thanks for sharing.

DesertZone

That would be such a fun garden.

DesertZone

That's great John! Love the herps (reptiles and such). It was missing a couple of species, I hope still live there. Awesome vid.!

DesertZone

Tim great pic of that Y. elata bloom. I have a question for you and Aaron. I have a Y. rigida that bloomed about 6 years ago in a pot. I kept it alive after and didn`t get any new growth until this spring. Do certain Yuccas die after blooming? Will your Y. elata be good to go after this bloom? Than...

It's a Y filata? Fila x elata. Nice

Not sure, I got it from you. With no tags.

DesertZone

WOW, a very impressive garden. Thanks for sharing.

DesertZone

Tim, do you have too poke a hole in the pistols for the pollen?

DesertZone

lets see some photos of your blooming Y. elata Aaron! 8) I will next time I update my blog. It is the same one that did the double bloom last year, did another double bloom this year. Surprising, it's such a small plant. Here is a Flata? bloom, it come from a yucca you gave me. :D http://3.bp.blogs...

DesertZone

Tim, that would work well for him.
