Yucca elephantipes

Yucca elephantipes, also known as elephant foot yucca or indoor yucca.
It is a hardy plant prized for its thick trunk and spiny, tropical-looking foliage.
Yucca is native to arid regions of the Americas and is popular indoors because of its ability to tolerate drought and easy care.

Description

Some basic indications for the care of Yucca elephantipes:

  1. Light: It prefers direct or very bright sunlight, so a location near a window would be ideal.
  2. Watering: It has low water requirements.
    Let the soil dry out completely between waterings and then water deeply.
    In winter, reduce watering even more.
  3. Humidity: Tolerates low humidity well, making it ideal for indoor environments.
  4. Temperature: Prefers warm temperatures, but is quite resistant to lower temperatures and can tolerate conditions down to 7°C (45°F) in winter.
  5. Fertilization: Fertilize with a balanced fertilizer for indoor plants once or twice a year during spring and summer.
  6. Pruning: It can be pruned to control its size.
    If they become too tall, you can cut off the main trunk, and it will usually sprout again.
  7. Transplanting: Transplant every few years to a larger pot with good drainage, although it is a plant that tolerates well to be a little tight in its pot.
