This Yucca linearifolia was planted at the botanical garden Darmstadt about
100 years ago by Mr. Purpus.

Photgraphed at the collection of Jos van Roosbroeck, near Antwerp, Belgium. This is probably the best private collection of agaves and yuccas in Europe.

Re: Yucca linearifolia
How hardy are these? I read 10 degrees F but would've assumed it could go colder.

Re: Yucca linearifolia
Somewhere in the negatives, similar to Yucca rostrata. They survived near 0°and a week below freezing in central and north Texas in 2021 no problem.BigLeonard wrote: ↑Wed May 25, 2022 1:06 pm How hardy are these? I read 10 degrees F but would've assumed it could go colder.

Re: Yucca linearifolia
Very cool, thanks. Had read 10 degrees somewhere which I assumed was inaccurate. Is their growth rate about the same as Rostrata?
