Discover the unique Yucca baccata, also known as Banana Yucca, Datil Yucca, or Spanish Bayonet. This evergreen shrub, native to the deserts of the Southwestern United States and Northwestern Mexico, is named for its intriguing banana-shaped fruit. Adaptable and resilient, it thrives in a range of soils from sandy to clay, and can even grow in nutritionally poor soil, as long as it's well-drained. A lover of sunlight, the Yucca baccata doesn't fare well in the shade but is extremely drought-tolerant, making it perfect for dry, arid climates. With beautiful blue-green leaves that can grow 30-100cm long, this slow-growing shrub can reach up to 3ft. During spring, between April and July, it blooms stunning white to cream flowers dappled with purple shades, while producing rough, black seeds that ripen within 6-8 weeks. The Yucca baccata doesn't just catch the eye; its sweet, cylindrical fruits were even dried and used by the Paiutes during winter. Experience this weather-resistant delight that effortlessly adds a touch of the exotic to your landscape.
