How do you prune an outdoor Yucca plant?
We have a large yucca in our front yard landscaping (it was here when we bought the house). I really like it, very pretty white flowers in the spring. But lately it has started to look shabby around the bottom and some of the leaves have turned yellow.
How can keep it looking green and healthy?
Cut off all the dead foliage using sharp, heavy-duty shears at least once a year, preferably after the dormant season. Never pull the leaves off; pulling harms the central stalk.
Once your Yucca flowers chances are good (depending on the variety) the central plant will die off and leave you with three to five new plants around the stalk. After the stalk has dried and before the new plants get too big you'll need to remove the center. Sometimes it gets really wet and rotted and pulls out easily. You'll probably want to use hedge trimmers or another type of blade though, to avoid damaging the new plants and to be sure to cut through all that fibrous material. {Yuccas are very fibrous. Native Americans used to use the fibers to weave fabrics, ropes and bowls.} In a few years all your young plants will be blooming and starting new plants of their own. Yuccas are also highly adaptive and spread quickly.
