RE: Yucca Rostrata
The hardiness data seems confusing, in the title they list it as hardy to -10, below in the "HORTICULTURAL INFORMATION" they say it is known to survive to -5 but they say the hardiness is USDA zone 5b which goes down to -15.
So is it hardy to -5, -10, or -15?

Your yard, it depends
The price, hole in pocket
North Carolina, warm
I have spoken, yield to my wisdom.

The seller, collector palms is very reputable. Yuccas do transplant very well and you can be sure that if you buy a palm or yucca from Ryan it will be in very good condition.
I don't think hardiness would be a problem considering rostrata will grow up here in Cincinnati Ohio. Just remember plant it in a fast draining soil.

A good friend of mine raises Yucca Rostata. He owns http://mayofarmsnursery.com/
They definitely need good draining soil. He also has bamboo.
He was a member of the Texas Bamboo Society. I don't know if he still is or not.
He lives in Raymondville... about 21 miles north of me. When I saw the price listed on Ebay, I thought they were really high.
We see a lot of those down here. Very pretty yucca.

RE: Yucca Rostrata
We received almost double the amount of rain in january, and well over average in december. After all that moisture my rostrata looks like it has rotted.
