I love it when a plan comes together!
“Those yuccas become invasive too but they grow the tall stalk with big white blossoms.”
Amazingly, they survive up here in Zone 4, too. I love it when they bloom! I sold many of them when I worked for Jung’s, but normally for Rain Garden areas or people that had sandy and dry soil...or who moved up here from the South West and wanted SOMETHING that looked like, ‘Home.’ ;)
Two local businesses use them in their landscaping; they are really something when they bloom here in the late fall!
Except try to get rid of a yucca.
Can’t do it.
About the invasive yuccas, back when I bought this house I was thrilled because the way the driveway and sidewalks are poured I have 6 separate spaces enclosed by 3 to 8 ft of concrete. Back when it was my home I had all my invasive herbs planted and thriving in these spots.
Now that I moved back to my home area amd married, our home has those yuccas growing in pathways we’ve made into some natural areas. For the past few years I’ve been digging them up and potting them then selling in yard sales. Depending on size I’m asking $5 -10 for them and people snap them up. I did not know they would tolerate the colder zones tho. Due to the invasive nature I would pass on adding them to anything not well enclosed no matter how homesick. I’d probably have to carry a prickly pear cactus to remind me of home even if it had to over-winter in a geenhouse tho.
