Description

The listing, Yucca Seeds has ended.

PIC. 1 this is one of my larger, "older plants"
PIC. 2 seeds themselves are both black and white
PIC. 3 is an image from internet as I have already harvested mine this season and removed center stalk.


The Yucca is a beautiful plant in general, and the flowers are edible (recipes on line)
The leaves are long and slender and come to
a point on the end
The sides of the leaves can give you a "paper cut" and the tips are sharp
This is great to line a fence, large drive way or use a a focal point.
Also used to plant under windows to deter people from getting close to them, that's where I have mine.

These plants produce pods as well as "babies" if left to grow with out regular tending you will see the babies growing very close to parent plant.
The babies are easily removed for transplant, but the bigger the plant the more work required to move them.
This is a very heat tolerant drought tolerant plant if you are looking for a beautiful plant that doesn't require a lot of attention... this is it.
Winner will receive 50 + seeds

I strongly suggest spacing of 2-3 feet apart if used for fence row or drive way
1-2 feet for clustering if used as focal point

When do you plant the seeds? Should they be started inside and then transplant outside? I live in Michigan.

I have always just let the seeds fall and replant themselves... but by doing this they will make "large" groups of plants, but being the first plant of this type you have I personally would start inside and get some good growth on it and then transplant, and once they are established they will be fine.. and they multiply I find it best to keep an eye out for the babys that will show up at the base of the mother plant and (you will know what im talking about the first time you see one, and then transplant them.) when they are small easy to do but as they grow it is more difficult. I would start seeds indoors maybe 6 to 8 weeks before spring. And you could also take some seeds out in the spring and plant .. I will do some research and see if i can find out more information for you .
