How to care for a Yucca elephantipes

Watering a Yucca elephantipes

Yucca elephantipes prefers regular but sparing watering. Water about once every two weeks during the growing season, and always allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly before watering again. Ensure the water drains well through drainage, for example, with a layer of hydroponic clays , or use a pot with holes to prevent root rot.

Light requirements of a Yucca elephantipes

This yucca thrives in a bright spot, but direct afternoon sun can burn the leaves. Place the plant near an east- or west-facing window, or away from a south-facing windowsill. If there's insufficient light, growth will remain slow; change its location occasionally to encourage a strong, straight trunk.

Is Yucca elephantipes poisonous?

Yucca elephantipes contains saponins that can cause stomach upset in humans and animals if ingested. Therefore, keep the plant out of reach of young children or curious pets. Looking for a safer option? Then browse our collection of non-toxic houseplants .

Different types

There are several Yucca varieties, each with its own unique charm. The most well-known include:

  • Yucca elephantipes
  • Yucca filamentosa
  • Yucca brevifolia
  • Yucca gloriosa
  • Yucca rostrata
  • Yucca flaccida
  • Yucca filamentosa variegata

Common problems

Yellow leaves

Yellow leaves on a Yucca elephantipes often indicate overwatering or a damp location. Check the potting soil and reduce watering if necessary. Lack of sunlight can also contribute to yellowing; ensure adequate light.

Plant leaking moisture (dripping plant)

If water leaks from the trunk or bottom of the plant, this could indicate damaged vascular bundles or root rot. Allow the soil to dry thoroughly and check that the pot is leak-free and dry. Consider using a new, well-draining potting mix, such as perlite, for better drainage.

Pests

Spider mites, aphids, or thrips may have nested in the leaves. Regularly wipe the leaves clean with a damp cloth or use a plant sprayer with mild soapy water. For stubborn pests, you can use our sticky traps for fungus gnats or a natural pesticide.

Roots emerge from the soil

When the roots grow out of the drainage holes, it's time to repot. Choose a pot one size larger than your current one and use fresh, airy potting soil. For helpful pot and soil combinations, see our potting soil for aroids collection.

Brown edges on the leaves

Brown leaf edges can be caused by excessively dry air or excessive use of lime-rich water. Increase the humidity using a plant mister or place a bowl of water nearby. Use filtered or lukewarm water to prevent limescale buildup.

Eye-Opening and Heart-Expanding
Format: Paperback
I am incredibly grateful for this book. It gave me profound insight into essential truths of Christian faith and doctrine by allowing me to see them through a radically different lens than my internal lens. Plus, it opened me up enormously to the experience of black Americans who express the pain and challenge of life in our country thoughtfully and provocatively. I left this reading chastened, desiring more conversation, moved to listen better, and hoping to live differently.

Best book I've read in last 10 years!
Format: Paperback
I'm absolutely blown away. I finished the book this morning. I have been recommending it to anyone and everyone who asks me "So, what you reading?". I'm known for having a book stack a mile high. I ran out of my first yellow highlighter! Profound stuff. The subtitle, How African American Literature Can Make Our Faith More Whole and Just, doesn't do the book justice. It is soooo much more. I highly recommend!

Countee Cullen chapter
Format: Paperback
This book is a great read. I’m not even sure how to encapsulate my thoughts on it, but let me say the chapter, “Jesus,” on the poetry of Countee Cullen is brilliant and a masterclass on discipleship, suffering, identity, projecting onto Jesus. This one chapter could literally be a course in Christian discipleship handling multiple aspects of the life of faith. I feel like I’m not doing the chapter, the book, or Claude Atcho justice here, but I deeply recommend this book and urge readers to really sit with the Cullen chapter and all its implications. What a gift Claude Atcho has given us here!

An exceptional, stunningly beautiful, and greatly needed book
Format: Paperback
Have you ever finished a book so heavy with truth and beauty and goodness that you don’t know how to sum it up? That’s where I am upon completing Claude Atcho’s Reading Black Books: How African American Literature Can Make Our Faith More Whole and Just. I’m the sort who marks up books with notes, underlining, and asterisks. Pages with ideas I want to return to get a folded corner. For this book? More pages are folded than not and a flip through the book reveals copious amounts of fuchsia markings. Full disclosure: Claude is a writer friend; we’ve chatted about faith, books, work, writing, and podcasting. I’ve been eagerly awaiting the release of his book, knowing it would be fantastic. You might think I was biased in that assumption, considering our previous connection, considering I received an ARC from Brazos Press. What I found from the first pages was even more than expected: my friend as pastor, shepherd, prophet, counselor, guide. Claude features 10 key creative African American works to cast a vision for human flourishing rooted in the power and love of God found in Jesus Christ. Just listen to this moving excerpt: “Healing is found in the constant individual and communal turn toward the tender mercies of God, who calls us to a theological remembrance: to locate our history in his, to make sense of our memory in his memory, to process our wounds in his wounds” (126). This book is beautifully written, theologically robust, and desperately needed. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. It is stunning.
