Yucca flaccida 'Colour Guard'
Common Name: Color Guard Yucca
Color Guard Yucca forms a bold rosette of upright, sword-shaped leaves. Creamy yellow centers are edged in green, with rosy tones developing in cooler autumn and winter weather.
Sturdy summer flower stalks rise above the foliage and carry hanging, creamy white bells. The evergreen leaves supply structure through the rest of the year and contrast well with rounded or finely textured plants.
Grow in sun or partial shade. This low-maintenance selection tolerates dry conditions and salt, and its tough foliage is generally resistant to deer browsing.
