Yucca elephantipes P27

Light Requirements

• Place your yucca near a bright, south- or west-facing window.
• Provide bright, indirect light. They can tolerate some direct sun, but intense midday heat can scorch the leaves.
• Rotate the pot weekly so all sides get equal light.

Watering Schedule

• Allow the top half to several inches of soil to dry out completely before watering again.
• Water deeply, but never let the pot sit in standing water to avoid root rot.
• Reduce watering significantly during the autumn and winter months.

Soil and Potting

• Use a fast-draining potting mix designed for cacti and succulents.
• Ensure your container has a drainage hole.
• Choose a heavy ceramic or terracotta pot to prevent the top-heavy plant from tipping over.
