Yucca angustissima (Narrowleaf Yucca) is native to the Colorado Plateau, particularly northern Arizona and southern Utah. With its spear-like leaves and elegant, tiered flower spikes, Yuccas are an essential plant in desert gardens and xeriscapes.

Yuccas enjoy a symbiotic relationship with Tegeticula yuccasella (Pronuba Moth) which lay eggs in the flowers while pollinating them.

Plant in areas with plenty of sunlight and little moisture and keep dry in the winter to avoid root rot. Once rooted deeply, it will survive on rainfall alone. Prune off flower stems once they become weathered. For a classic desert garden display, plant with Salvia azurea (Texas Sage), Chamaebatiaria (Fernbush), Chilopsis (Desert Willow), and Delosperma (Ice Plant).
