Yucca Banana Split

Yucca Banana Split Details

Yucca Banana Split, commonly known as the Spanish Dagger Yucca, is a variegated, evergreen shrub grown for its foliage and flowers. It features sharp-tipped, sword-shaped leaves that have a broad, yellow edge and a green-grey centre. In summer a flower spike rises above the foliage to bear masses of pendulous, cream-coloured flowers. The combination of flowers and foliage is impressive. It typically grows as a clump to 1 m tall and the same wide, performing best when grown in full sun on a well-drained site. It will tolerate extended dry periods, moderate wind, and frost. Yucca Banana Split is commonly included in a mixed planting, used in borders, or grown in a container. This Yucca is a popular choice among landscape designers due to its architectural quality, hardiness, and aesthetic appeal.
