Bright Edge Yucca (Yucca filamentosa 'Bright Edge')

Bright Edge Yucca (Yucca filamentosa 'Bright Edge'), also known as Variegated Adam's Needle, is a compact, evergreen perennial prized for its sword-like green leaves edged in bright yellow. This cultivar combines drought tolerance with colorful, architectural foliage, making it a standout in dry, sunny landscapes.

Distinctive Features

Growing 2 to 3 feet tall and wide, Bright Edge forms a clumping rosette of stiff, upright leaves bordered by golden yellow margins and lined with curly white filaments.

The evergreen foliage and strong symmetry offer four-season interest and structure.
