Anyone looking for Yucca ?

I have one outgrowing it's pot & my wife hates it because of the spines... $30 + shipping. I believe is a dwarf form of Spanish dagger. I'll get a photo up later tonight. I can also supply Spanish dagger cuttings to root @ $25 each and very good size. They root very easy & grow quickly.

Did I mention that Spanish dagger can become massive if you fertilize on a regular schedule...

This was a two foot cutting I made three years ago. The trunk in now the size of a large coffee can & it stands at about 9 ft with two heads. :shock:

Hi Laaz,

nice Yucca aloifolia specimen. They have some bad spines! Too bad they are not hardy in my area.

I tend to cut off the spines since I have kids and their friends.

Yes the spines are always cut off (I have to mow around that monster)
