Reviving Indoor Yuccas: Pot Size, Light & Water

Diagnosis: Overpotted & Sunburned

Large pot holds excess water → root rot. Moving to intense outdoor sun bleached leaves (white centers, brown tips).

Recovery Steps

1. Cut off all damaged leaves—they won't recover.
2. Keep indoors in sunny window.
3. Water only when soil dry deep in pot.
4. If pot is huge, consider repotting into smaller container with gritty mix.

Prevention

• Yuccas need small pots, fast drainage, maximum indoor light.
• Never move directly from low to high light—acclimate gradually.
