(aka: Yucca flaccida 'Yellow Stripe') We first saw this selection of our Southeast US native Yucca flaccida in a New Zealand wholesale plant catalog in the early 1990s, although we've never been able to determine its actual origin. In our garden, Yucca flaccida 'Yellow Striper' forms a 2' tall x 4' wide offsetting rosette of foliage that's green with central yellow striping. The incredibly hairy flower stalk, which rises from the rosette in late spring reaches 8' tall, before opening into a tower of pendulous white bells, which acts like a lighthouse for nocturnal moths.
