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.

Nice video Aaron. I frequent the hardy Yucca board in Germany. Lots of Yucca lovers over in Europe.

Aaron great video. Someone is serious about Yuccas, Agaves, and Palms. The nursery was impressive. I noticed at the 6:15 mark a Trachy that was looking a little rough. Germany has more large Yuccas and Agaves available than we do being way closer to Arizona and California. No phyto for them probably. I wonder how they are doing through this freezing cold winter there. Thanks for posting this.

I'm sure we will hear how all those trunked Yuccas in Europe faired in the next couple months. Jost, Thomas, Sascha, Horst, Fritz, Benny, and others all have great gardens with loads of Yuccas.

I was thinking of him too when I heard of Europe's cold.

He's not on here often, but does provide updates.

Those huge palms and yuccas and cactus of his...oh man :shock:
