Plant Color Guard Yucca in very well-drained soil and in full sun to light shade. I have it planted near barberry, juniper, lantana, sedums and other drought tolerant plants in my xeriscape garden.

Color Guard Yucca does not require pruning. Damaged or discolored leaves can be removed any time of year. After it blooms, you can remove the flower stems.

I've seen no insect or disease problems with Color Guard Yucca. Consistently wet or soggy soil can cause problems. Make sure to plant in well-drained soils.
