Description
Yucca potosina (also called Potosí Yucca, among many other common names) is a perennial evergreen shrub native to the southwestern United States and Mexico. It has a rosette of long, rigid, sword-shaped leaves and a tall, woody stem. It is found in dry, sandy, or rocky soils in open woodlands, scrublands, and grasslands.
Cultivation and Propagation
Yucca potosina is an evergreen perennial that can reach heights of up to 4 feet. It is best grown in well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade. Propagation is typically done through division or by seed. Seeds should be sown in a sterile, well-draining medium and kept at a temperature of 65-75°F. Once the seedlings have developed two sets of leaves, they can be transplanted into individual pots.
