This Plant Delights/JLBG introduction is a variegated deer-resistant yucca, which sported from another hard-to-find NC introduction, Yucca 'Wilder's Wonderful' (from the late plantsman Bobby Wilder). The original had creamy streaked centers, while the new sport has a bright yellow center resembling Yucca 'Color Guard'. Each clump grows 20" tall and 24" wide.
