Description

A great way to bring a modern feel to your home, these bold houseplants make a striking feature with their swordlike, long green leaves sprouting from a sturdy trunk.

Yucca elephantipes is native to South Africa and will thrive in a bright spot in the home (although preferably not in direct sunlight) at temperatures of about 18-24°C. Grown for their foliage and shape, they really do resemble small trees and make an instant and dramatic impact when given pride of place – ideal for a bright room or conservatory. For a touch of variety, they are a great plant to move outdoors to bring a Mediterranean feel to your patio during the summer.

One of the easiest houseplants to grow and care for, the yucca is exceptionally robust, requiring very little water – perfect if you don’t have much time or sometimes forget about them! As Yucca elephantipes holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure that these plants will perform superbly for many years to come. Just water moderately from spring to autumn, and less frequently in winter; and they will appreciate a balanced liquid feed every three months.

Supplied with trunk and foliage measuring 45cm+ above the pot (grower pot is 11cm diameter x 9.5cm height). Each cane has one major and at least one more minor break.

Please note: Decorative pots shown in the images are for illustration only and are not supplied. The plants will arrive in plastic pots, as grown in the nursery.

Top Tips
  • Yuccas thrive best in a sunny spot in bright, but not direct sunlight.
  • Yucca will also tolerate light shade.

 

Care Information
  • Water more often in the summer, feeling the top of the soil before you water, and reduce the watering through the winter months.
  • Apply a balanced liquid houseplant feed every three months.
  • Not winter hardy, so if grown outside, bring the plant back inside over winter.
  • It is quite tolerant of temperature in the home but don't let it fall below 7°C.

 

Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
