  • Description

  • Notes

Utah yucca has simple, sword-like evergreen leaves arranged in rosettes, the leaves frequently having curly fibers at the margins, giving them a whitish look. The rosettes can grow to 3 feet, though it may also grow a stem up to 3 feet tall. Flower spires form in spring, and are lined with fragrant, creamy, bell-shaped blossoms. Use in a rock garden, or a naturally-styled landscape.
