Q.Yucca plant food

Zone Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, UK | Anonymous added on May 5, 2020 | Answered

I purchased a yucca plant last year and it looks sickly and needs perking up. I have moved the plant to a more sheltered spot on a north facing garden. Is there a specific plant food you would recommend please? Photos attached.

It looks like it gets way too much water. These are not heavy feeders, and will grow in poor soils. If you don't have an area that dries out thoroughly between each watering, then you may have to choose a more water tolerant plant for the area.
