Hi all,

I have this yucca-like plant in my garden:

http://www.aalife.com/!yucca3.jpg

It is about 1.5 mtrs tall. Can anyone identify it for me? Is it, in fact a
yucca, or is it something else?

I'd also like to know why the leaf-ends are becoming dead and shredded, as
seen in the small photo underneath (sorry it is so blurred). Would that be
due to winds, or due to over-watering (or even under-watering)?

Many thanks,

Jim
