Beaked Yucca is extremely tolerant to heat, drought, and frost. It can withstand temperatures as low as -10° degrees Fahrenheit. It offers a striking focal point in gravel gardens, Mediterranean gardens, and borders. Yucca rostrata has sharp-tipped, bluish-green leaves that sprout from the trunk, resembling a symmetrical pom-pom. It produces yellow-orange flower stalks in late spring that bears beautiful clusters of white flowers. They can easily thrive on neglect with full sun and well-drained soil.
