Yucca Rostrata - 170cm

Product description

Please note that the height may vary by 10cm. This is measured including growing pot.

The Yucca Rostrata has a special appearance due to its unique shape that you will not often see. The crown containing long, bright green, large leaves of about 40 to 60 centimetres that stand straight up makes the Yucca Rostrata a real eye-catcher. These leaves grow from the inside outwards. When the outer leaves have had their best day, you can leave them hanging for a natural effect, but you can also cut them off to create a nice tight effect. Originally, the Yucca Rostrata comes from northeast Mexico, West Texas and the Chihuahua desert.
