Yucca fil. 'Bright Edge' (variegated)

This striking evergreen perennial forms a clumping, upright habit with sword-like leaves boasting vibrant green centers edged in bright golden-yellow, creating a bold, architectural presence in the landscape. It is hardy in Zones 4-10, thriving in full sun or partial shade with remarkable heat and drought tolerance. The recommended temperature range allows it to grow in diverse climates, and it provides excellent deer resistance. While it does not exhibit notable fall color, its sharply defined foliage is a year-round highlight. In mid to late summer, tall flower spikes emerge, bearing clusters of creamy-white, bell-shaped blooms. Preferring well-drained sandy or rocky soils, this plant has excellent adaptability to poor, dry conditions. Mature heights reach 2-3 feet, with flower stalks extending up to 5-6 feet tall. Its low-maintenance requirements and bold visual impact make it an excellent choice for accent plantings, xeriscaping, or containers.
