Yucca gloriosa 'Bright Star' 4 litre pot

Bring bold, year-round drama to the garden with Yucca gloriosa 'Bright Star', a strikingly variegated evergreen shrub prized for its architectural rosette of sword-shaped leaves. Each leaf is edged in vivid gold, with cooler weather bringing out attractive pink and red flushes for added seasonal interest.

This slow-growing, low-maintenance Yucca typically reaches 45-75cm (18-30in) in height and spread, gradually developing a short, trunk-like base that gives it an increasingly tree-like presence over time. In mid to late summer, mature plants may send up dramatic flowering stalks bearing dense panicles of nodding, bell-shaped white flowers, opening from pink-tinged buds.

Thriving in full sun and free-draining soil, 'Bright Star' is highly drought-tolerant once established and copes well with poor soils and coastal exposure, making it a strong choice for Cornish gardens. Its striking, sculptural form makes it equally at home as a specimen in a large container or as a bold accent in a mixed border.

Ideal for gravel gardens, coastal planting, large containers, and border accents, this eye-catching Yucca brings structure, colour, and year-round interest wherever it's planted.

How to grow: Plant in full sun in well-drained soil, watering regularly until established. Once settled, it's highly drought-tolerant and needs minimal aftercare beyond removing spent flower stems.

Each plant is hand-selected for healthy, well-balanced growth.
