What happens if the tips of the leaves accidently get cut my a lawn mower?
Clean up the damaged areas by trimming the leaves at an angled cut.
Yucca are quite tuff and should recover.
I have just moved house and this plant is at the front of the house ! It looks like it is dying I have no idea what it is called or how to help it :(
It is a variegated yucca. This is normal during wet seasons. There are many fungal infections that can affect this small shrub, and most will go away on their own. You can help this along faster by applying wettable sulfur and dolomitic lime.
I know nothing about a yucca plant. I just received it as a gift. I do not know how much water to use when watering.
These are quite drought tolerant. I would only give it water when the top two inches of soil are completely dry. This will vary since the conditions around it will affect the time it takes to dry out.
As for how much to use when you water... I would make sure that your container has good drainage and that extra water is allowed to leave the container. Sitting in water will certainly lead to infection. If there is no drain hole/s then I would recommend changing pots. Leave a drip pan under it so that you can throw out any extra water that sits after watering. The amount that you water will have to be learned over time. Eventually you will get to where you won't need a drain pan, or holes, as you will know exactly how much water a particular soil is capable of holding.
They don't seem to be sensitive to tap water, so this is fine to use, but rainwater is always a safe bet.

My Yucca plants have lots of pods. I would like to try to grow more yuccas but all I find online is that it says when the seed pods are dry, they are ready to collect. How do I know when they're dry?

We are having our front garden landscaped and my yucca is staying put. I have just noticed that there is a bad scrape on the trunk, should I put anything on it to protect the trunk. Wendy.l
Most cuts or wounds will heal on their own and covering them is not recommended.
My cousin had planted some yucc a plants in front of house to thin his out. They are a beautiful plant but they did not survive where he placed them. Instead they have now invaded my roses. I removed the ones from my roses. It took me all day. I gave them to my sister. My roses bloomed like crazy. YAY!! Now the yucca s grew back. No more roses again. Boo hoo. The roses have been there at least 80 years. It is how long my grandpa owned the house. These Yuccas are turning me into one bushed Gardner!
Those will be flower heads! They will turn into seeds and spread. These will be hard to control, as they spread from underground tubers. The only way to get rid of these without harming the roses will be to remove them by hand each time you see one come up. It will take a few years, more than likely. Once these get established, they will take over an area very quickly.
