Description

The listing, Banana Yucca (Yucca Baccata) Seeds hardy perennial, zones 4-10 has ended.

Package of 5 seeds, hand-collected by me from healthy plants. Will include personal note from me regarding my personal experience with germinating them.

A showy plant with a beautiful stalk of flowers that some relish as a favorite wild food.
The fruits are also edible and said to taste somewhat like a sweet potato when baked.
It is found in rocky desert soils, grasslands and open woods throughout the southwestern United States.
Grows native here in the high elevation reaches of northern New Mexico, it's a fairly common plant on the floors of the pinyon-juniper woodlands that span much of my area, and up into the Ponderosa Pine forests. They seem to have an amazing tolerance to the brutal summers and where the winters are extremely long and snowy. Of the few that grow on my property, they need no upkeep and are doing just fine in a region where we get less than 20 inches of rain a year, while their beautiful spring blooms add a nice touch of color to any xeriscape.

SHIPPING:
Due to Customs Regulations, I am unable to guarantee shipment of seeds or live plants across US borders. Feel free to bid, I will ship, but customs may interject and by bidding you agree to these terms.
Thank you.

RECYCLE
I try my best to reuse all my boxes, bags, and fillers. Please try to do the same. Fact: Each ton (2000 lbs) of recycled paper we produce can save 17 trees, 380 gallons of oil, three cubic yards of landfill space, 4000 kilowatts of energy, and 7000 gallons of water. This represents a 64% energy savings, a 58% water savings, and 60 pounds less of air pollution!

Hey, everybody! I love that Listia offers a "like" button for auctions. I gladly "like" auctions, because it shares it with all of my friends. The more exposure we get here on Listia, the more people that sign up. The more people selling and buying, the more cool stuff for us to get our hands on for just the cost of credits and occassional shipping cost. Not a bad plan! Please "like" the auctions that you like, so we get more Listians! Thanks!

The current auctions that I have listed with free shipping may be the last...
Unfortunately my webstore is not making the sales needed to feed my family and pay the bills. I have offered free shipping for more items than I can afford to here on Listia. I will not be able to offer more great items and/or free shipping without making actual sales in my store or on Ebay. For this, I apologize. If you want to see more from me here, please take the time to share links to my store and/or ebay with your Facebook friends and Twitter followers. The best advertising is word-of-mouth. Even if you may not be interested in the items offered, you may have a friend that would be interested **if they knew about it**.
Thanks for taking the time to read this comment.

will these grow in flower pots?

Yes, they will. Just like most other plants, you would want to start with a small pot and transplant to larger pots as it outgrows the first one.
