Default Yuccy Yucca

Hi,

Can anyone help with some Yucca advise please.

The botton bits of my outdoor Yucca turned a light dead looking colour
some months ago. It is wilted in appearance, the leaves now drooping.

Are there any disadvantages to taking the unsightly leaves off, or
should I leave them on?

Many thanks

Greg T

Which outdoor Yucca? There are many species and cultivars of Yucca grown
outdoors. Some are stemless rosettes and others are arborescent. Many of the
arborescent types form a skirt of dead leaves to protect the stems.

In which part of the country are you? It does make a difference.

Sorry didn't realise it would make a difference. It seemed like a
Yucca to me, but I believe it's could be a Cordyline Sundance.
Possibly known as an Australian pine. Sorry to be so vague, but it was
inherited in the garden on arrival.

I live in Surrey, very close to London.

Regards
