Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Hi Barb
Cold hardiness cross rostrata x rigida is better/and nicely/ that rigida/-12C to-15C/,I think about -15C-18C.
Last year 3 weeks cold period with low 9C without protection no problem/no fully rooted !!/
Here update 2008pic
Regards
Josef

Josef,
That is good to know.
One more question: what fertilizer do you use and when?
Grateful for your input and photos of your superb specimens.
Thank you.

Josef,
How long until fully rooted?
I read (somewhere?) a good yucca fertilizer is 3-1-2 once a month.
Or 19-6-12 for 3 months.
Josef, you're the yucca and agave "master".
I will wait until fully rooted.
Thanks for the advice.
