Markus! It is not really that small of a town! 29 Palms on the other hand is and you should know! Yes, and I went to school with you in Yucca Valley at JSCS (Joshua Springs Christian School) just for the people who don't know. Your BEST Friend Paige :)
Reply:Yes, don't know anything about it though except it is out west somewhere. Is it really in a valley ? I lived in Sweetwater Valley and it really is a valley. It's a small town also. Gorgeous place, real friendly people.

I have a yucca plant that is going black at the tips. What are the best conditions for it to thrive?

The best conditions for it to thrive in are a warm room and dry soil, water once a month and it needs alot of sunlight, the leafs are turning black because it is going dormant, nothing to worry about.

bathroom it likes it hot and humid
Reply:humidity, not too much light. spray often with fine spray pump can, with boiled water.
Reply:some years ago my daughter gave me a yucca about 1ft high, my wife who hates house plants decided that although she couldn't kill it planted it in the garden. This summer the plant was 7ft high with six stems and it has not had ANY attention at all.
Reply:I can't get rid of mine! Throw it in the ground outside! We started almost ten years ago with on big yucca, and now we have close to thirty! with their offshoots! We don't do anything to them.


My outdoor Yucca plants are brown this spring after a few years of being beautiful. What happened?

Did they get frost bitten? I lost all my rose bushes cause we had some crazy 80 degree days then back down to the low 30's.

If it bloomed last year it could be a natuaral die off.


I just got my first Yucca Cane indoor plant and I don't know what kind of light it should receive?

The smaller leaves are turning brown and so I started over-watering it which I now know is a bad idea. Not sure what to do and what kind of light the plant/tree should receive?

Yucca's are succulants, they need sparse water and a lot of light, outside in direct light is best. If it is small it may dry out quickly outside in direct light so be sure to keep an eye on it.





I've never heard of a Yucca Cane, but this site might help you identify it.





Also, most Yucca's here in souther California only grow in higher altitudes, above 2k-2500 feet elevation. I'm not sure why, I've heard it from several sources.

Yucca plants in Zone 4 - when can I divide them? Can I divide them?

my wife and I did ours in the spring....we live in the Carolinas. A good rule of thumb I guess is to transplant after danger of all frost has passed.

Yucca plants in Zone 4 - when can I divide them? Can I divide them?
Yes you can divide yuccas, I would recommend doing it in the spring as soon as you can work in the soil. They will have a better chance of surviving. The roots are very thick and may rot if they are transplanted now during the dormant stage.Good luck
Reply:Yes you can.
Reply:In zone 4, I would say the best time to divide would be either right now, before the first frost, or in early spring just after the last frost. When divided every few years, perennials benefit by becoming stronger and producing more blooms. Dividing perennials creates more, smaller, clumps of the same plant. Even if more plants are not desired, perennials should be divided to rejuvenate old plants.





The first step to division is to dig up the plant to be divided. Wash a majority of the soil away from the roots so you can easily determine where to make the division. Some plants can be divided by gently pulling off sections of the crown, while other plants may require a sharp, clean knife to cut through he roots. Do not take too many divisions from one plant, as each section must have enough healthy root to sustain growth. If any part of the root looks dead, damaged or diseased, trim back to healthy white tissue.





As a general rule, plants that flower in the spring and early summer should be divided in the fall. Plants that flower in summer and fall should be divided in the spring before new growth is too large.
Reply:Why would you want to? Those plants are nasty.I have cut my hands on them so many times.





I think you can divide them, now. Wear gloves.
Reply:The Winter is not a good time to break up clustered young plants from their Mother, because we are going into our cold season and these plants will be going into dormancy. It is best to divide these types of plants when they are growing, like in the summer because that growth will provide strength for their new separation and they will be off to a good start. Separating them in the Winter time puts them without shelter and a good root system to be left dormant, and without any strength from their mother plant. So wait until temperatures reach 80 degrees, then break them up.

What are the difficult issues of using Yucca Mountain as a nuclear waste repository?

The NIMBY syndrome.

What are the difficult issues of using Yucca Mountain as a nuclear waste repository?
The most difficult issue is local opposition. It has to be much better than haveing all this radioactive waste sitting in thin concrete barrels all over.


Can yakka's (yucca's) have their roots trimmed back?

The shape of the pots they are in are causing them to fall over in wind. I am going to buy a different shape and repot. Can the roots be trimmed down when repotting?

Can yakka's (yucca's) have their roots trimmed back?
Yes, Yucca (sing and plural) can have its roots trimmed. Be careful not to scrape the tap root surface and remove all the dead roots.
