Yucca, Soapweed (Yucca glauca), packet of 20 seeds

hello pye, basically the yucca species are useful as landscape plants that do provide habitat and food for diverse beings. they are long-lived and taprooted, are usually sacrificed at harvest and not easy to harvest. the one you’re mentioning here is the most northern hardy of the yucca, i’ve seen them growing wild in wyoming, they are easy to establish on the landscape and quite showy, they protect and companion with other perennials. The main use revolves around their content of soap-like saponins. a reasonably mature plant (3 years or older) can be dug up and the root cooked down, the resulting concentrate can be used as a soap or diluted and used to decrease pathogens and increase growth rate and health of houseplants, nursery plants, or garden plants–the saponins make water wetter, increasing rate of absorption. r
