Griffin inspects our ‘Color Guard’ Yucca container planting – In this video I plant ‘Color Guard’ Yucca from the Southern Living Plant Collection in a container and then underplant with some Daffodil bulbs from Colorblends bulbs.

I love Griffin! ❤️
Yes!!! This video showed up just in time. I just bought 10 of these from Lowes on clearance for $3 bucks each. Love your video! Thank you😉
Container inspector Griffin has the cutest face Jim. 🙂
Working at a nursery I sell so many of the color guard that I prefer ‘bright edge’ & more unique varieties. The rice hulls that growers are using are cool, but I don’t like the goo that’s around the fertilizer. How’s your windmill palm?
Sooo many great ideas. I think I might need a yucca😊 Thank you Jim and Steph !!
I like your idea of underplanting the yucca with bulbs! Very clever! I've never seen this particular combo before. 👌
I have 3 Color Guards planted in between 4 Sky Pencils!
I bought a color guard. all the babies came out solid green. urgh!
Thank you Jim , Stephany and Griffin . Looks like another plant that I’ll have to find so I can plant one. I can’t wait to see the daffodils in the spring. 🍁🍂🍁🦃💚🙃
This plant shines in winter here in zone 5. It's a real winner.
'Color Guard's' translucent leaves really light up in the low winter sun. Mine are near the sidewalk where many dogs walk their humans each day. Funny, none of them are interested in yuccas.
Beautiful 💕
i bought two of these gorgeous plants this fall on clearance. I have them in the ground. I have heavy clay soil like you, but so far they are doing great. In the spring i'll dig them up and replant them in well draining soil
I planted a Color Guard Yucca about 5 years ago and love the variegated leaves. I wasn't sure it would even live in my heavy clay soil, but it's still alive and so is the Russian Sage (which has spread everywhere) that I planted near it. I have never watered either of these plants, and they don't get watered from the underground sprinklers. I had to stop using my underground sprinklers nearly 10 years ago because our town has a strict water usage policy.
The star appears at the end 👏👏
Interesting about the rice! I noticed that on plants I bought this spring. Looking forward to seeing the daffodils bloom!
