Planting Depth for Red Yucca
Does anyone know how I should plant a red yucca, should the soil line be above the crown or below. I was thinking below but the lady I got these from said above. I just don't want them to rot.

The crown needs to be above the soil line.
Below and they will rot. Almost always better shallow than to deep.

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.

Ditto.
Never below the soil line.

I like it.KrisK wrote:Aaron's right, but I'll offer a little rhyme.
Plant it high, it won't die.
Plant it low, it won't grow.
I dunno who gets credit for it but its helped me out numerous times!
