5 Seeds Yucca angustissima Narrowleaf Yucca Ornamental Evergreen Rosette
Yucca angustissima, commonly known as narrowleaf yucca, is a hardy evergreen perennial forming a dense rosette of stiff, narrow blue-green leaves. It brings a bold architectural silhouette to rock gardens, xeriscapes, and containers, and develops tall summer spikes of creamy white bell-shaped flowers that stand well above the foliage.
This slow-growing, long-lived plant works well as a specimen accent, in mixed cactus and succulent beds, or as a low-maintenance border feature. Its compact clumping habit and tolerance for poor, dry soils make it a dependable choice for water-wise landscapes, and the striking flower stalks add vertical interest through the warm season.
