These two don't require any root barrier, so I don't expect them to be invasive at all.

After their first Winter:

Live plants are sooo expensive! Will try to look for the seeds coz it's looking awesome, Aaron!

marceli

Looks like gloriosa variegata to me, but let's wait for our experts to answer your question

marceli

59F / 15C yesterday! Yay!

marceli

Aaron, I bet u have plenty of sunshine there! This is what I usually miss the most during our Winters. The warmer winter here, the less sun we get

marceli

I can't disagree with dat. Tim for president!

My young Y. filata 'Big Mama' from Tim is waiting for Spring in the ground. Can't wait!

marceli

6 months old

It's gonna skyrocket if planted in the ground!

Update. http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss152/palmiarnia/IMG_5073_zps9694a35c.jpg Y. neomexicana doesnt like our wet winters. It's gonna be kept under glass all the time: http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss152/palmiarnia/IMG_5076_zpsde9662b4.jpg I had an accident with flooding in the late Fall ...

marceli

We got first major snow and temperature slightly below freezing. Perfect

marceli

No worries, Ben! We used to have very cold winters. When I was a child I remember heavy snowfall and frost almost every winter. Who knows, maybe the trend for you will change?

marceli

How often do you open this to let some fresh air get inside?

It's here!

We've had no winter this year...yet and I hope this trend continues.

The problem is I don't have light cold place to store my yucca. I noticed the youngest leaves are pale green. Checked the soil with some thin long stick and it's a little moist, so it might be not about watering :?: I'm confused now :| http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss152/palmiarnia/IMG_5046_zps...

A quick question ladies&gents: my indoor rostrata's leaves are wilting. Should I stop watering it at all? It grows in plastic pot with sandy-gravel soil, so very quick drying. It has very little light, unfortunately, but temperature is pretty high. I know, it's bad for overwintering.

marceli

Nice rostrata! Mine will probably go in the ground this Spring, but winter cover is necessary here due to high precipitation during Fall/Winter.

marceli

I don't believe this plant is only 15yrs old!

What the heck is going on in N. America?!

We have 0 snow and forecasted 50F/10C for Saturday

marceli

-11C/12F this morning but it supposed to be slightly above zero during the day tomorrow, then even milder in upcoming days... which means it's gonna be freezing in north America

marceli

Update. Temp. was -8C but its getting warmer again... which means u guys will probably get colder

marceli

No complains here either! This has been exceptionally warm December so far. Today's morning temp.: 50F / 10C.
The only downside is we rarely see the sun these days

marceli

What about Big Mama's leaves? Do they massively wither and dry like gloriosa's leaves during cold weather and then recover very fast?

marceli

Hi Marceli, Do you add any supplemental heat or ventilation for them? The protection method looks great. I guess you've had success year after year.. Congrats! No additional heating - survival of the fittest only :wink: The picture doesn't show but I always cut two "windows" and leave the...

Hello marcel, I have noticed, that if a new Yucca is planted a little deeper, than one would think, with the lover leaves just below the surface, then the Yucca grow faster, and will it will grow a thicker base. A good base is very important when the Yucca in time will be in bloom. If the base is t...

I hate to do this, but time flows so swiftly... It's time for winter protection, again! It may be premature you might think, but I have cacti there and they need to stay as dry as possible before real winter comes. Every year my protection looks pretty much the same: http://i571.photobucket.com/albu...

Call me crazy but I could fall in love with that reddish brown dirt, stones and rocks with blue skies above

Desert landscapes rock

Such a collection of yuccas! Looking great

My bamboo planted this May. F. rufa is undisputed leader in growth. The other one has grown very little so far.

I planted G. tinctoria this Spring. Here it is:

They're growing like crazy, even though we had some drought, but the more you water them during warm days, the better!

Love your garden! So fresh and green

marceli

Getting bigger & bigger

There's a Y. baccata under the glass still recovering from flood.

marceli

Lemme hijack your thread for a second

My little rostrata from march 2014 prepared a liitle surprise for me. Check it out:

Do I see 2 offspring or what? I didn't know if that's possible with such small plants.

marceli

Another one to identify!

Can it be Y. rostrata 'Sapphire Skies'? The seller says it is. Young plant. Leaves are serrated, blueish-gray color, stiff:

Well done! I love it!
