I bought my first Yucca Rostrata today and already I thinking about cutting it up. Ill look for pups. If.you want multiples you have to be cruel. Thanks for passing on the knowledge, I had no idea.
This seems crazy. Is there a follow up video showing how these have done over 9 years later?
great info! We just purchased our homestead in New Mexico and they are everywhere! just lively and lovely. TY for the great info. We've transplanted but I wasn't sure how to multiply our plant's. I'm thrilled to give this a try. Blessings and thanks again.
With the exception of the rootball, the other pieces will take some skill to grow. They are thin and will dry out (my experience), so I recommend humidity of a greenhouse or similar conditions. You can also grow from the rhizomes from which the newbies will sprout.
thanks for doing this...!

I was worried because I dug out a yucca plant that I can’t identify , it suffer root damaged in the process. I’m doing some bull dozer work and it was in the way . I’ll take it home and plant it , now I’m assured it will take grow back nice and healthy . I have plans for a Xeric garden . I saved 3 plants out of development harms way .
I've never seen anybody divide a rostratra as such for propagation, interesting. I'd like to see the plants that the chopped up truck product. When I harvest my rostratras I take great care not to damage the root crown, much less chop it up, because it really stunts the plant. I'm going to have to reconsider and maybe give this a try.
I am afraid it does not work as easy on rostrata almost impossible on brevifolia, easy on others though.
Parabéns pelo vídeo muito bom gostei você sabe ser tem iuca no Brasil um abraço
Wow! It is so beautiful ! Do not cut this amazing plant!
yeah I agree, what do you do with those small pieces. need more info. Do you lay those pieces in the dirt or what?
it's simple. just place the cutting in some dirt in a pot and dampen the soil. leave the pot out where it can get lots of sun but make sure the soil doesnt dry out completely until you see signs of growth.
I like this video and this is good information, but I recommend that you change the title, for your viewers convenience. "Dividing Yuccas for Propagation" or "How To Divide Yuccas", would be more accurate, since you don't cover the planting of the cuttings, in this video. You could call this part one, if there are more parts to this subject and you could always create a "Yucca Playlist" or a "Propagation Playlist" or a "Cuttings Playlist" or a "Cloning Playlist", etc. Thanks
***** Thanks for the recommendation! we'll take it to heart and try to cater to all of you as best we can!
What are the round growths on the stem and what is their purpose?
will it work with Yucca gloriosa, im new to planting, I have this yucca in our house, grown too big and because of its size, the plant is dying because of limited space.
I'm dumbfounded that this guy is not wearing gloves when dealing with these Yucca rostrata leaves, which, despite being flexible and elegant, are like razor wire on their margins (side edges). I guess his palms are even more calloused than mine... The other side of the hands are much more easily gashed than the palm side, so be careful out there, newbies.
soooooooo, do you plant those or just leave 'em sitting on the ground?
I would leave them on the ground for a while to let the cut area callous over, rather than dipping them into water or damp soil, which cause an infection. I place any cuttings under an area with dappled shade such as shrub or oak tree, maybe with some loose leaf litter of grass clippings over the aforementioned cut area for a few weeks. I'm doing this with an Agave attenuata and a Haworthia right now, and am about to do it with my Yucca rostrata 'Sapphire Skies.' And perhaps it's so obvious as to not bear mentioning, but don't do this in the winter.
I also want to know if I must separate my plants and how often. Are they supposed to be flowering each year? Maybe mine are not because they are too crowded...
from what I have read the main factor in whether yuccas will flower is how much rain they get during the winter / dormant season. a wet winter will inhibit them from flowering while a dry winter will encourage flowering.
Rostrata won't work easily by experience.
Hi guys, just a quick warning before you destroy your beautiful trunking yuccas. This will not work for most species of yuccas native to the southwestern US. It may work on Y. Elephatipes, Y. Gloriosa, Y. Aloifolia and most clumping yuccas, but not Y. Rostrata. If you wanna propagate your plant, please do some research before on the species and how to do it. In this video you can basically see a Yucca rostrata getting destroyed. Thank you.
So, how do you propagate those from cuttings? I keep mine very dry in winter (no water for a month or so) and I noticed on one of them a slight wrinkling on the trunk (it goes away a day - 2 after I water it, so I hope it's not something of a concern). I keep them in a pot and bring them inside if extreme temperatures are expected (10-20F). I read they could withstand 0F or so, and that they grow even in a solid zone 6b-7a in Denver, but I'm still reluctant to try them in a zone (7b)-8a here in southern Europe (continental climate, absolute min around 0F, average winter min around 10-15F).
@@martinakis3747 Yucca Rostrata is propagated by seed only and not from cuttings. Bringing them in during extreme frost is a good idea, when planted in a container. I have some in the ground in northern germany and they survived down to -17 with no problems.
We had extreme cold down here in N. Macedonia, we got to -10'C in the morning (I measured -5'C on my balcony where I keep the yuccas) but the cold lasted for a week with barely positive temp through the day (+2 to +5). Olive trees, laurel, trachycarpus, oleanders, rosemary, fig trees grow fine, so I maybe am overly paranoic about the rostrata. I'll give them a try in an open unheated greenhouse. I guess they'll be fine and make up during the long hot summer we got here with highs up to 40'C.
@@martinakis3747 you have nothing to worry about with these plants
Hi, I have heard many parts of yucca are edible. Does this vary for each variety?
Thanks.

In my parent's homeland they eat the flowers. They carefully wash the flowers and add them to soups, stews, etc.
My mother's favorite is cooking them with scrambled eggs
Sweet baby jebus... I almost 😢 watching this guy brutally handle this poor innocent defenseless plant... You damn monster... Lol
Seriously right. Like a horror movie for gosh sakes.
Machete and all.
Edible?
In my parent's homeland the flowers are, but you must be careful not to wilt, damage the flowers as you wash them for eating or the flower will turn bitter making it inedible.
You can add it to dishes as you would spinach, pumpkin flowers, etc.
You are crazy to butcher that beautiful yucca rostrata. You cant guarantee you'll have 6 new plants. Yucca arent easy to transplant. In fact the only one that transplants easily is the gloriosa
not true at all. my experience with yuccas is they are very easy to transplant and very hard to kill!
We've had excellent luck transplanting and growing yucca plant's. There very hard to destroy and very easy to grow.
I don't mean to taunt, but of course, he meant taut, not taunt. 😂
A.C.C.U.Y🤷
The farmers😷 non profit plants😷
DO NOT do those to
Rostrata!
We found a botanical butcher what’s a shame
😄😄😄😄 yes...
