I Have Moved House And Someone Looked After My Yucca Plant For Me For A Couple Of Months. I Have Got It Back Now And It Looks Worse For Ware, It Lost All Its Leaves Apart From 2. I Have Had It Back In My Window For A Couple Of Weeks Now And Have New Chutes Coming Through. I Have 3 Trunks To My Yucca And My Middle One Seems Ok But The Smallest One Has Routted And Died And The Largest One Is Starting To Go Soft Everywhere And I Pulled A Bit Of One Of The Old Dead Chutes At The Top Off And Lots Of Water Come Out Of It, Is My Plant Past Saving Or Can I Do Anything To Save It? Cheers John
Sounds like overwatering. Yuccas generally like it dry. How often did the caretaker water it? check the roots, carefully. Health ones will be white. Brown or black are rotted ones.
HI, THINK THEY WAS WATERING IT EVER COUPLE OF DAYS, I MAY HAVE BEEN OVER WATERING IT MYSELF ASWELL, I WATER ONCE A WEEK BUT NOTICED THE SOIL WAS ALWAYS DAMP AND A BIT MOULDY. KEEPING PLANTS IS ALL NEW TO ME AND I THINK I SHOULD OF ASKED SOME QUESTION ON HOW TO LOOK AFTER THEM WHEN I BOUGHT IT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR RESPONCE. JOHN.
