Yucca Tree

Question

Can I plant my yucca outside? It’s grown too big for inside. It has been outside all summer in a tub.

Answer 1

Yes, most varieties can be grown indoors or outdoors, so it is perfectly safe to leave this plant outdoors, even planting it in the ground if desired. You may want to insulate the container with a blanket or other wrap in winter for addition cold protection, as potted plants are more prone to cold damage than those planted in the ground. Pruning your yucca may also be in order.
