Mojave yucca

Thanks. :) And I never said it was easy! I hope you didn't get too many scratches either, or had the sense to wear gloves (I never do!) Second shot looks good - I love the angle! Now you know, next time don't cut the leaves, just rip them off. Actually, it can be very therapeutic at times! ;)

It will (fingers crossed!) make it look a lot different - maybe you can post an after photo? Again, welcome! :)

You're welcome. :) As for the trunks, best way to trim them up is to pull the leaves downwards sharply. Some need to go slightly left, some slightly right. It's actually really easy, though some people do struggle with it! That's how you get the nice trunks. It's possible with the leaves that have been cut, just with the ends left attached to the trunk. But don't go too far up - once the leaves start growing out just upwards of horizontal, stop trimming. :) Hope that helps!

It's a yucca, definitely. And my inner gardener is saying those trunks need trimming up properly! :D
