Soft Leaf Yucca (Yucca recurvifolia)
Graceful evergreen yucca with soft, arching leaves and dramatic white flower spikes.
Soft Leaf Yucca is a striking, architectural plant with a more user-friendly feel than traditional yuccas. It features long, blue-green, sword-shaped leaves that curve gracefully downward and lack the sharp, stiff points of other varieties. In summer, it sends up tall stalks covered in creamy white, bell-shaped flowers that attract pollinators.
Key Features:
- Mature Size: Grows 6–8 ft tall and 4–6 ft wide
- Growth Habit: Upright with gracefully arching leaves — forms a bold, rounded clump
- Foliage: Soft, flexible blue-green leaves with a smooth texture
- Seasonal Interest: Tall spikes of fragrant white flowers in early to mid-summer
- Tough & Adaptable: Extremely drought tolerant, heat tolerant, deer resistant, and thrives in poor soils
Ideal For:
- Specimen plantings and focal points
- Xeriscapes and water-wise gardens
- Coastal and Mediterranean-style landscapes
- Mixed shrub borders
- Large containers and modern gardens
Care: Full sun to light shade. Plant in well-drained soil (excellent drainage is essential). Water regularly until established, then very drought tolerant. Remove spent flower stalks and old leaves as needed
