Oh my! I am going to have to look for that one. We have yucca here that grows wild, but it makes a white bloom.

Neat plant! And I'm so happy that it's hardy to 5a! Now if I can just get the seeds to germinate!

My red yuccas seem to attract hummingbirds.

Nice picture. It's the first picture I've found that shows the whole plant, not just the flower. When you're wondering whether to get a plant you want to see a mature plant, flowers and all!

I'll bet it won't flower like that here in the UK though.

I have a red yucca in zone six. I grew it from seed that I got from a neighbor's plant. It is about three years old, two feet tall and is the longest blooming plant that I have in my garden.
I tried to upload a pic of my yucca and couldn't. Before all the changes at DG it was easy, not anymore.
