Yucca Cane Deco Care

Yucca plants prefer to be on the dry side and are considered drought-tolerant plants, which makes sense given their desert origins. In general, allow about the top half of the soil to become dry before watering. More specific watering requirements will depend on how much light your yucca plant receives. In lower light conditions, water your plant less; in brighter light conditions, water your plant a bit more. Overwatering is probably the only way to kill a yucca.

Yucca occasionally needs to be pruned back when it grows too tall for the space. Remove the plant gently from its pot and use a saw or sharp pair of loppers to cut the trunk in half. Repot the rooted end of the trunk, and water it well.

Feed once every month during the spring and summer with a liquid fertilizer for indoor plants.

Your Yucca prefers bright indirect light. It will tolerate lower light, but growth will slow. If the Yucca is exposed to direct light, the leaves may burn.

Your Yucca Cane prefers temperatures between 65°-75° F.
