Yucca repotted into a beige planter

Yucca is an evergreen plant of the asparagus family, known for its stiff, sword-shaped leaves gathered in rosettes at the top of the trunk, which looks like a miniature palm and is valued for its decorative appeal and undemanding nature; it blooms with large, bell-shaped white flowers on a tall flower stalk, forming a striking inflorescence. The plant is native to North and Central America, stores water in its trunk, is drought-tolerant and prefers plenty of light, and its roots contain beneficial saponins.

Basic care requirements Lighting: Prefers very bright light. South- or west-facing windows are ideal, bright diffused light, but avoid harsh midday sun. Temperature: Summer +20-28°C, in winter cool +10-15°C (not below 5°C), during the dormant period. Watering: Moderate, allow the soil to dry out by 2-3 cm or deeper. Reduce watering in winter. Better drought than overwatering (root rot). Air: Prefers dry air, but can be misted occasionally (with warm, settled water) and the leaves wiped of dust, avoiding direct sunlight. Fertilizing: Spring–summer, every 2-4 weeks with balanced fertilizers for succulents or palms. Do not fertilize in winter. Repotting: Every 2-3 years in spring, into a loose, well-draining soil for cacti or palms. Drainage: Required at the bottom of the pot to prevent water stagnation.
