Hi Tim,

thanks for sharing. Both of your Y. filamentosa x rostrata looks very promising. The small offspring that Jost gave to me is a very fast grower.


here is another promising hybrid: Y. (filamenosa ssp. concava x glauca ssp. stricta) x arkansana from Hungary.

Hi Horst,

the Y. fila x rostata looks great. I'm glad Jost's fila x rostata had another offshoot..............none of my 4 plants have any offshoots. If I'm lucky one may bloom next season??

Your Y. (filamenosa ssp. concava x glauca ssp. stricta) x arkansana is surprising since it has very 'U' shaped leaves. I would not think it would have 'U' shaped leaves with the parents of concava/sticta/arkansana.

Hi Tim,

thanks for your Yucca update. They have all performed well.

And is there anything on interesting Yucca fruits with you? What have you created on interesting Yucca hybrids?

Please, keep us updated!

All the best, take care,

Jürgen
