A bold, tree-form yucca native to Mexico, Yucca filifera develops a tall, sculptural trunk topped with dense rosettes of narrow, spear-like foliage. Perfect as a dramatic accent plant, it thrives in a sunny, well-drained position whether planted in the garden or showcased in a large container.

This evergreen species is both hardy and low-maintenance, making it a great choice for NZ gardens looking for a drought-tolerant, sculptural statement. Mature plants reward with showy panicles of white flowers that hang gracefully through the foliage.
