Plant in a Box Yucca Elephantipes - Set of 3 Palmlelie

The Yucca Elephantipes is a large houseplant that originates from Central America. This species of palm is often cultivated in large nurseries deep in the rainforest. The Yucca gets its name from its heavy rhizome, which resembles elephant feet. The leaves of the Yucca Elephantipes are thick and fleshy with a sharp, finely serrated edge. The lower leaves of the Yucca naturally die off as the houseplant grows. These should be carefully removed to maintain a tidy appearance.

Care
The Yucca is one of the easiest houseplants available, as it does not require much water. Watering the plant once every two weeks is more than enough. It is very important that no water remains at the bottom of the pot, as this can cause the roots to rot. The Yucca prefers a bright location, but be careful not to place it in direct sunlight. Direct sunlight can lead to discoloration of the leaves. Every 2-3 months, the Yucca needs sufficient nutrients to keep its leaves looking lush and green. Please note that the plant is toxic to both humans and animals.
