care tips
A lack of water is usually not a problem for your yucca plant, as it is a resistant plant. This is thanks to its own leaves, which close their stomata to save water, and its roots, which, when planted outside, are capable of growing up to two metres into the ground in search of water.
If you would love to see your yucca producing flowers, you should take into account that the best type of soil for this plant is a substrate with a pH between 6 and 7, which is very loose and must have good drainage.
