Adam's Needle Yucca (Yucca filamentosa) 

I thrive in full sun.

​I do not need extra water.   

Size:     3-8 ft tall x 3-4 ft wide

Bloom Time: Spring, Summer                     

​I am a low maintenance, eye catching native agave. I grow naturally in scrub environments and am drought and salt tolerant. I prefer full sun to part shade and sandy soils. I am slow growing and have sharp-tipped, sword-shaped leaves. Those white little curls on my leaves are used by birds as nesting material. I am a host plant for multiple moths. Fun fact, my roots make a great soap!
