Yuccas are found in a very wide range of conditions, and are perhaps the most generally widespread of the plants that would be considered as exotic or architectural.
They are also often grown in large pots because of their structural beauty - they look very impressive either planted among other plants in the garden, or as stand alone features.
Yuccas come in a variety of shapes and sizes, the main difference being the length of the stem and the ease with which they flower. Check the details for your own choice carefully, because some flower quite seldom, and this is a big attraction for the plant.
The flowering Yucca in this picture is Yucca Gloriosa (Spanish Dagger). There is only a very short trunk, and long pointed leaves.
This Yucca flowers easily in sunny conditions, giving a fine display of white bell-shaped flowers on a tall stem.
Yuccas also spread laterally and can be divided quite easily.
