Its soft, arching, smooth leaves start a blue-grey maturing to a dramatic smoky purple color. Over time it grows maybe 5 to 6 feet tall by 3 to 5 feet wide in a barrel form and may develop multiple stems. What's more, clusters of pendulous, very pretty translucent white flowers on stout stems rise above the foliage in mid summer. Highly adaptable, Blue Boy thrives in a range of environments from hot and humid or dry climates. We've heard it even does okay in the Pacific Northwest. That said, we're not really sure about the plants threshold for low temperatures. We know it has survived over several winters with low temperatures around 20 to 25 degrees here in north-central Georgia USDA Zone 8a, but not sure if it will survive in 7a or further north. Excellent for garden beds and containers, which can be brought indoors during the winter in cold climates. This is one special gem you want to find just the right place for in your garden!\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLandscape \u0026amp; Garden Uses\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eGrowing 5 to 6 feet tall and 3 to 5 wide, the Blue Boy Yucca is ideal for use as a specimen or in groupings in sunny to partly shaded landscape borders and home foundation plantings. Looks very nice around garden ponds or in rock gardens near boulders and also makes a nice solo or centerpiece in containers of 14 inches or more in diameter. A fine addition to rock gardens and Xeriscape Gardens (low water needs when established). We like combining Yucca with other low water need plants such as junipers, barberry, abelia, ornamental grasses, and loropetalum. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eSuggested Spacing:\u003c\/span\u003e  5 feet or more apart for space between plants\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eNote: \u003c\/span\u003eFor our customers who live and garden North of USDA Cold Hardiness Zone 5a, where this Yucca variety is not reliably winter hardy, you'll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrowing Preferences\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003eBlue Boy Yucca prefers a lightly moist to dry well-drained soil in full sun or part shade. Good drainage is essential and it prefers a neutral to alkaline soil. Add agricultural limestone (pelletized lime) to acid soils to make more alkaline. No maintenance required except to remove spent flower stalks. Good drought tolerance when established though will appreciate an occasional watering during extended dry periods to perform its best.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eNote:\u003c\/span\u003e  For helpful advice provided by our experts, click on the Planting \u0026amp; Care tab above on desktops and below on mobile phones.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlant Long \u0026amp; Prosper!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeet The Wilson Brothers \u0026amp; Staff\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQuestions?\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan\u003eContact Us\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e                                                    \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48148762165402,"sku":"D2LSC 934442769","price":55.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0751\/3263\/3242\/files\/Yucca-Blue-Boy-16_1b6d8098-7289-46e3-827e-95fe132b2be0.jpg?v=1779980136","url":"https:\/\/plant.hcgardenus.com\/products\/blue-boy-yucca-3-gallon-pot-1","provider":"Royal Horticultural Society","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
