🌞 Light & Placement

Place your Yucca gigantea in a bright spot with plenty of indirect sunlight. It thrives near large windows or in well-lit hallways. Avoid deep shade, as it can cause leggy growth and pale leaves.

💧 Water & Humidity

Water moderately and let the top half of the soil dry out between waterings. Yucca stores water in its thick trunk, making it forgiving if you forget now and then. Average European indoor humidity is perfect—no misting required.

🪴 Soil & Potting

Use a well-draining mix, such as cactus or succulent soil blended with perlite or sand. Repot every 2–3 years in spring to refresh nutrients and support healthy root growth.

🐾 Toxicity & Safety

Yucca gigantea is mildly toxic if ingested by pets or humans. Keep out of reach of curious cats and dogs, and handle with care to avoid skin irritation from the sap.

🌱 Growth & Propagation

Slow to moderate grower indoors. Can reach up to 2 meters over several years. Propagate by stem cuttings taken in spring or summer—root easily in water or moist substrate.

📆 Seasonal & Special Care

During winter, reduce watering and ensure the plant receives maximum light. In summer, you can move it outdoors to a sheltered, sunny balcony for a growth boost.

🐛 Common Issues

Overwatering is the main risk—watch for yellowing leaves or soft stems. Occasionally inspect for spider mites or scale insects, especially in dry indoor air.

🧬 Botanical Background
