Originating from Central America (Mexico and Guatemala), Yucca was used by the Maya people 2000 years ago as medicine and food. The indigenous people consider it the most beautiful shrub of the deserts, have revered it for centuries, and even named it the "tree of life" because of its miraculous effects.
Since the 1960s, it has become very popular as a houseplant. The leaves are arranged in clusters like those of palm trees, and the stem is covered with the marks of fallen leaves, resembling an elephant’s foot.
Yucca will survive in darker rooms but will require care to compensate for the lack of light.
Plant height 90 cm
Pot diameter 17 cm
