Q.Why isn’t my Yucca plant’s leaves pinty and sharp?

Fatimat added on July 22, 2018 | Answered

Last summer i bought this yucca tree. It looked normal and healthy (first picture from left). When winter came it was too cold in my apartment and it had not acces to enogh sun light so its leaves started to turn yellow and soft so i removed them directly! As shown in the next picture, it went almost bald with only few leaves left. Then I started to take care of it very well and it started to grow. But as you can see in the pictures, its leaves was not dark green anymore. And they were so thin and not sharp like it supposed to be. The last pic is its current image. It has very very long and wide leaves but hangy, not pointy and sharp. Why is it growing that way?? It doesnt even look like yucca plant anymore.

This is, most likely, a response to a lack of light, fertilizer, and possible overwatering. This will produce the symptoms that you are seeing.
