Yucca filamentosa Details

Yucca filamentosa, commonly known as Adams Needle, is an evergreen shrub grown for its foliage and flowers. It features sharp-tipped, sword-shaped leaves that are dark green. In summer a flower spike rises above the foliage to bear masses of pendulous, cream-coloured flowers. The contrast between the flowers and foliage is impressive. It typically grows as a clump to 1.5 m tall and the same wide, performing best when grown in full sun on a well-drained site. It will tolerate extended dry periods, moderate wind, and frost. Yucca filamentosa is commonly included in a mixed planting, used in borders, or grown in a container. It is a popular choice among landscape designers due to its architectural quality, hardiness, and aesthetic appeal.
