Golden Garland Adam’s Needle*
Yucca filamentosa “Golden Garland”
Type: Perennial
Exposure: Full Sun
Water: Regular to Light

The evergreen foliage of this spiky perennial forms an eye catching clump 3ft (0.9)m high and wide. The leaves themselves are green with a brilliant creamy-gold center stripe, which will light up any winter garden.
Leaves have loose threads along the edges. In late spring or early summer, creamy white bell-shaped flowers appear in clusters on vertical stalks that can reach up to 7ft (2.1m) high. Flowers are slightly fragrant in the evening.

* Sometimes the common name isn’t all that common. You might want to go with the botanical name on this one.

Cheers,

John
