Description

The Yucca brings sculptural beauty and southwestern charm right into your home. With those distinctive sword-shaped leaves arranged in perfect rosettes and the promise of towering Yucca flower spikes, this resilient beauty transforms any space into a desert-inspired sanctuary.

Native to the Americas and naturally adapted for easy living, your Yucca tree thrives with gentle care and understanding. We love how forgiving these plants are - they're wonderful companions for both new plant parents and experienced collectors who appreciate low-maintenance elegance. Whether you choose a smaller Yucca for your favorite corner or a statement-sized specimen for your living room, this plant will grow alongside you for decades, adding timeless beauty to your carefully curated space.

Care 

Are yuccas hard to care for?

Yuccas are wonderfully forgiving plants that make excellent choices for both beginners and experienced plant lovers. These resilient beauties adapt well to various conditions and don't mind if you occasionally forget to water them, requiring mainly bright light and patience.

We find that most plant parents quickly fall in love with how understanding these plants are. Think of your Yucca as that low-maintenance friend who always looks great - minimal fuss, maximum beauty, and always ready to brighten your day.


Do Yuccas like full sun or shade? 

Your Yucca absolutely thrives in bright light and loves soaking up full sun whenever possible, though it gracefully tolerates partial shade too. Indoors, we recommend placing it near your brightest window where it can enjoy optimal growing conditions.

The more sunshine your Yucca receives, the more likely you'll be rewarded with those spectacular sword-like leaves and potentially even those magnificent flower spikes that make these plants so special.


How often should you water yuccas?

Water your Yuccas every two to three weeks during spring and summer, allowing the top few inches of soil to dry completely between waterings. In winter, reduce watering to once monthly as these desert natives prefer staying dry.

When you do water, give it a thorough drink until water flows from the drainage holes, then let it rest. We always tell our customers that with Yucca plant care, it's better to underwater than overwater.


Where is the best place to keep a yucca plant?

The perfect home for your Yucca is near a bright, sunny window with good drainage and adequate air circulation. We love seeing them in entryways, living rooms, or anywhere their stunning silhouette can create a natural focal point.

Choose a spot where your plant can show off its striking beauty while staying safely away from cold drafts and heating vents. Your Yucca will reward you with steady, graceful growth in return.


What is the best fertilizer to use for yuccas?

Feed your Yucca with a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer diluted to half strength every few months during the spring and summer growing season. Skip fertilizing completely in fall and winter when your plant naturally rests and doesn't need extra nutrients.

We recommend keeping fertilizing simple and gentle. These plants evolved in nutrient-poor soils, so less is definitely more when it comes to feeding your beautiful Yucca.


Do yuccas need misting?

Yuccas don't need misting and actually prefer the dry indoor conditions that many other houseplants find challenging. These desert natives thrive in average home humidity and excessive moisture can sometimes lead to fungal issues on their leaves.

Save your spray bottle for other plants - your Yucca is perfectly content with the natural humidity levels in your home and will thank you for respecting its low-moisture preferences.


How long do yuccas live for?

Your Yucca can become a treasured long-term companion, often living for several decades with proper care and sometimes reaching fifty years or more. We love knowing that these plants can grow alongside families, becoming more beautiful with each passing year.

This makes them wonderful investments for anyone looking to create lasting beauty in their space. There's something deeply satisfying about nurturing a plant that can be part of your home for decades.


Are yuccas good indoor plants?

Yuccas make absolutely wonderful indoor plants thanks to their striking sculptural presence, remarkable resilience, and refreshingly low maintenance requirements. They bring that perfect combination of dramatic visual impact and easy-going personality that works beautifully in modern homes and offices.

We particularly appreciate how well they adapt to typical indoor conditions that challenge many other houseplants. Your Yucca will thrive in the dry air and bright light that most homes naturally provide.




Pet-friendly?

Yuccas are not pet friendly. They contain compounds called steroidal saponins that are harmful to pets if ingested. For the wellbeing of your furry family members, please keep these beautiful plants safely out of reach of curious paws and mouths.


Are yuccas poisonous to dogs?

Yuccas are toxic to dogs due to steroidal saponins found throughout the plant. If your pup decides to sample the foliage, they may experience drooling, vomiting, diarrhea, and weakness that requires immediate veterinary attention for their safety.

We always recommend positioning your Yucca where even the most curious dogs can't reach it - perhaps on a high plant stand or in a room that's typically off-limits to your four-legged friends.


Are yuccas toxic to cats?

Yuccas are definitely harmful to cats, potentially causing drooling, vomiting, diarrhea, and weakness if your feline friend decides to investigate with their teeth. Since cats are natural climbers and plant explorers, extra care is needed with placement.

Consider a high shelf or hanging arrangement where your kitty can admire your Yucca's beautiful form from a safe, non-nibbling distance. Your cat's safety is always worth the extra planning.



Factoids

What is a yucca plant?

A Yucca plant is a perennial evergreen with rosettes of sword-shaped leaves and occasional tall spikes of fragrant white or cream flowers. These beauties belong to the asparagus family and are native to arid regions throughout North and Central America.

 

Is a yucca a cactus?

A Yucca isn't actually a cactus, despite their shared appreciation for dry conditions and desert landscapes. While cacti belong to the Cactaceae family, Yuccas are proud members of the asparagus family, making them botanical cousins rather than siblings.


Is yucca a perennial or an annual?

Your Yucca is definitely a perennial plant, meaning it will grace your home for many years rather than completing its life cycle in just one season. This long-term commitment makes it such a rewarding choice for anyone wanting to build lasting relationships with their plants.


Are yuccas poisonous to humans?

Yuccas contain saponins that can cause stomach upset, vomiting, and diarrhea in humans if consumed in significant quantities. The naturally bitter taste usually prevents accidental consumption, but it's wise to keep them away from curious children and adults who might experiment.

We always recommend treating all houseplants as "look but don't taste" and washing hands after handling any plant, just to be safe and maintain good plant care habits.


Do yucca plants multiply?

Yucca plants naturally multiply by producing small offshoots or pups around the base of the mother plant. You can separate them when they're large enough. Many species spread through underground rhizomes, while others can grow from stem cuttings with patience.

This natural tendency to produce new plants makes them wonderful for sharing with friends or expanding your own collection over time. There's something magical about watching a single plant become many.


Can you eat yucca?

You cannot eat the Yucca plant root, which contains high levels of toxic saponins. It’s often confused with edible yuca or cassava. Some Yucca flower varieties are used in traditional Central American and Mexican cuisines when prepared by experienced cooks.

We always recommend leaving any food preparation involving plant materials to experts and treating your houseplant Yucca as purely ornamental for safety and peace of mind.


Do Yuccas purify the air?

Yuccas help improve your indoor air quality by naturally filtering toxins like formaldehyde and benzene from your environment, contributing to a healthier home atmosphere. Those broad leaves work quietly to process the air around them throughout the day and night.

While they're not the strongest air purifiers in the plant world, every little bit helps, and you get the added bonus of stunning architectural beauty alongside their air-cleaning benefits.


What part of yuccas are medicinal?

The root of certain Yucca species, particularly Yucca schidigera, contains beneficial compounds that have been studied for their anti-inflammatory properties. However, the raw root itself isn't safe for home consumption and requires professional preparation for any medicinal use.

We always recommend leaving medicinal plant preparation to qualified professionals and enjoying your beautiful houseplant Yucca purely for its ornamental qualities and air-purifying benefits.

Comfortable Mouse & Smooth Operation
Style: M705
I bought this Logitech M705 to replace an aging one with a touchy left click button, which was part of a wireless desktop keyboard and mouse package (MK700) that was purchased over a decade ago. So, replacing the old M705 with a new M705 was a no-brainer. After receiving the new M705, I inserted the battery and expected the new mouse to connect to the old Logitech Unifying Receiver automatically. To my surprise, the mouse didn't work, so I plugged in the new USB receiver and the mouse worked, but not the old keyboard. Perplexed, I started looking at Amazon reviews and thankfully I ran across a review from Rudy which helped solve my problem quickly. Turns out I needed to go to logiwebconnect.com to get the new mouse to work with the old unifying receiver. Once I did, I had the new mouse working in a matter of minutes. I saw a lot of negative reviews for the newer version of the M705, but the new mouse build quality is good, it's as comfortable as the old M705, and it works flawlessly for me. The buttons are responsive, the scroll wheel has detents, and there are no issues with random scrolling with the scroll button engaged. I used to work as a PC technician, and my experience is in most cases when there are issues with peripheral devices it ends up being the PC itself, and rarely the peripheral device. Overall, this a great replacement for an aging mouse, wired or wireless, or if you are considering a new mouse. If the battery life matches the original M705, which I'm certain it will, expect to get many years of operation without replacing the batteries.

One of the Best
Style: M705
I've tried other names brands over the years, but always come back to LogiTech. Logitech makes some of the best wireless mice. This recent purchase is my Third M705 mouse. The previous one lasted almost 10 years before it started acting a little quirky. It could have only needed a good cleaning, but for the price it is easier to get a new one. I also recently bought a new computer, because my 9 year old Win 7 HP physically broke at the screen hinge. The well-designed Logitech M705 mouse lasted longer than my last two computers. LOL I love the design and I'm so glad it hasn't changed over the years. The mouse is very comfortable to hold and the buttons and wheel feel like a normal part of my hand. The mouse also has (programmable) side buttons, which are thumb operated for Forward and Back for use in a browser. They can also be easily programmed for reverse operation (whichever seems more natural for the user). Or, they can be programmed for custom commands in programs, besides the standard Forward/Back in Web Browsers. The description says the batteries last up to 3 years, and they literally do, with good quality (Duracell) AA batteries. The mouse also gives an on screen notification when the batteries finally get low. The mouse uses a very small USB dongle (Receiver) to communicate between the mouse and computer. There is no need to Pair devices via Bluetooth. Simply plug in the USB Receiver and start using the mouse. It's truly Plug & Play. It's fortunate that the receiver & mouse are Plug & Play, because the the printed instructions are all but useless. The are no visual diagrams. And the instructions are printed in multiple languages using micro-fine text that is almost illegible. It's worth pointing out that the USB Receiver is hidden inside the battery compartment and is so small it is easily overlooked. It's a good design to prevent losing the receiver when using multiple computers, or taking from home to school/work. But it confused me at first, because I expected it to be a separate item in box, which I thought was missing. Overall, I highly recommend this mouse. I've bought it before and I'll buy it again. UPDATE: To MKay who is getting the 3 blank screens with images of multiple open programs. That is not a error with the Logitech mouse. On some versions of Logitech mice, there is a very small (almost unnoticeable) on the left side at the bottom. It is (by default setting) used to scroll through multiple open programs/windows when the taskbar is hidden. Microsoft Windows 11 (and probably earlier versions, too) has the feature of TaskView (a setting which can be turned off in Taskbar settings). The TaskView has a black & white icon on the Taskbar. It is a very annoying feature IMO! The small (programmable) button on the mouse is most likely activating the TaskView feature - which is exactly as the picture you provided. Don't get mad at LogiTech for an MS Windows feature. Simply turn off TaskView in Taskbar settings, or reprogram the button on the mouse to do something else - and Love your mouse again!

Everyone knows this is one of the absolute GOATS of Logitech Mice - get one before they're gone...
Style: M705
I've had many Logitech mice over the years I've really loved that were then discontinued. This is a long running mouse that pretty much ALL logitech users just love! And since it's long in the tooth, I'd recommend stocking up while you can. Here's some of the perks, but above all else, it feels so amazing! 1. It's a smallish, very light, simple mouse. I personally don't like the giant gaming mice. This has everything I need, including a scroll wheel you can click between smooth and ratcheted mode. 2. Uses 1 or 2 AA batteries - This gives it incredible battery life - many months at least. And when you do need to replace batteries, it's instant. I keep a pair in my backpack. So much more convenient than having to charge a rechargeable mouse, especially given rechargeable batteries slowly wear out. 3. Works like a dream on Macs with no drivers installed at all! 4. You can stash the wireless USB receiver dongle inside the mouse! Which is priceless. Note that nowadays, I have an Apple Silicon Mac, I have to use a tiny adapter to plug the dongle into a USB-C port. But it's still tiny and convenient. 5. For me, Logitech still hasn't made anything better. I'd love to see a mouse almost like this with a USB-C receiver, but until then, it's as close as it gets to my perfect mouse. I have tons of these all over the place.

For the price, it's a very good wireless mouse. But it's not my MX Anywhere.
Style: M705
I have two first generation MX Anywhere Mice that have countless hours and probably thousands of "miles" on each of them. Didn't know what they were about until I'd owned the first one for a few months, which eventually led to my buying a second one. That second one was "refurbished" because it was purchased some time later (from Amazon), as by then the second generation had been released and I simply liked my first gen so much I wanted another. So why did I buy the M705 Marathon Mouse? Well, the MX I've used the most over the years turned out to be the refurbished one. Why? Luck of the draw? Don't really know, but because of the constant, daily use it began giving me problems with double clicking on the left button and occasionally on the right button. That's a lot of use! I looked at buying the latest MX Anywhere mouse, but didn't like the prices and couldn't be sure if they were as well made as my originals. So, I ordered the Marathon, which appeared to be a less expensive version of the MX. Well, unfortunately it's not. Compared to most other mice, the Marathon is fine; typical good Logitech ergonomics, tracking and getting the job done. But, park it next to my MXs and use them one after the other and you "feel" the difference. As old as my MXs are, they still feel more precise, tighter and more responsive than the Marathon. They also are a better fit for my hand; the Marathon is a larger mouse which for where I use it means it doesn't "fit" my work area as well. Also, Logitech claims you can "customize" the Marathon using their software, but it was a lot of work to actually find "that" software for the Marathon and once I did it simply did not work as well as the software/MX Anywhere combo I've used for so long. What the Marathon has going for it is it's price, it's still an RF (radio frequency) and not a Bluetooth mouse (I hate Bluetooth mice, totally different response curve), and it is "Logitech." So what does all of this mean? Well, I put the Marathon to work (yeah, no more unwanted double clicking!) and parked the refurbished MX. I then checked on Mouser Electronics, found the correct replacement switches for my MX ($0.80 each), ordered them, and upon arrival I replaced the old switches. It was an easy swap on the little MX circuit board (it did require some extensive tear-down), with the result of: My old MX is back in service! And what's to become of my Marathon? Well, it's a good mouse, so it has a new home out in my shop, as it replaced my Logitech wireless mouse for my Dell laptop I use out there. By the way, that Logitech is from the late 1990's (Win 98/Win XP period)! And I don't think that one will ever wear out!
