Yucca - Color Guard
The Adam's Needle, 'Yucca filamentosa ‘Color Gard’, is a clump forming perennial with yellow stripes down the middle of its dark green foliage, looking ribbon-like.  In summer, a tall, showy flower spike emerges from the center of the plant and puts on a prominent show for several weeks.   These creamy, bell-shaped, white flowers hover over the foliage and are fragrant. ‘Color Gard’ has a nice plant height and spread for that small sunny spot in your yard. Plant this yucca in full sun and in a well-drained area. ‘Color Gard’ looks great in a subject garden or in containers and is also a butterfly attractor.  Once established, it needs only occasional watering. In the winter months, the foliage turns pink. The red coloration on the long blades highlight the flowering crown, so 'Color Gard' offers year round appeal. * Outstanding focal point! * Low maintenance. * Allergy free.
